[SOLVED] get object which is nearby to mouse
On the 3D scene 15 objects moving right. How to get object position when mouse on left side and height of this object? (see screnshot below) My idea is put trigger and use onMouseOver but its looks like dirty way, any better suggestions?

Get both objects in screen space and compare.
if (mousePointerScreenSpace.x > objectScreenSpace.x){
//mouse is to the right
}
Thank for answer. This is looks simple and works good. This is my gameObject code
Vector2 mousePos = Input.mousePosition;
Vector2 pos = Camera.main.WorldToScreenPoint(tf.position);
//defining area
float rBound = tf.position.x - xBound;
float topBound = tf.position.y + yBound;
float botBound = tf.position.y - yBound;
//transform area to screen space
Vector2 TopRight = Camera.main.WorldToScreenPoint(new Vector3(rBound, topBound, tf.position.z));
Vector2 LeftBott = Camera.main.WorldToScreenPoint(new Vector3(tf.position.x, botBound, tf.position.z));
//if cursor on the area
if (LeftBott.x < mousePos.x && mousePos.x < TopRight.x && LeftBott.y < mousePos.y && mousePos.y < TopRight.y){
//do something
}
