I used to be able to do that - but as I am trying it's not working :/
Maybe it'll work for you, I'm not having such a great day :O
Also the vertices parameter in "camera.screen" is supposed to be optional:
screenPlace(camera, myMovieClip, My3dObject, 1)//1=first vertice
function screenPlace(camera,who,whob,vert):void {
var result:ScreenVertex;
result=camera.screen(whob,whob.vertices[vert]);
who.x=result.x + 300;//half view width
who.y=result.y + 200;//half view height
}
