You could use PICK OBJECT, or PICK SCREEN. PICK OBJECT detects whether you have hovered an object with mouse, and PICK SCREEN calculates the 3D world position by giving a 2D screen coordinate, and a distance from the camera (if you didnt give a distance, the mouse could be pointing to anywhere along the line you are pointing down).

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!
