Grid coordinates

Is it possible to get x, y, coordinates by clicking on grid ?
Or get coordinates from clicked position - object or grid.

Do you want to prompt the user to click somewhere? Or do you want to discover where the user clicked when changing the current selection?

Yes i want to get coordinates on prompt.
And use coordinates for drawing object.

I could use line drawing as in example in Interface_Functions (Do_InputALine).
I think i could get coordinates out of API_GetPointType and API_GetLineType.

Thanks Ralph
