You didn't say much about how the unit cube is constructed, but usually it means that it has an edge length of one (1.0) and is centered around the origin (0,0,0). This usually also implies that the model matrix is the identity matrix. So corners will be at min(-0.5, -0.5, -0.5) and max(0.5, 0.5, 0.5). The triangle you are constructing, however, extends from the origin with an edge length of 1.0. Try to offset your triangle by translate(-0.5, -0.5, -0.5) and you should see it lining up. You can also use the coordinates directly, e.g. a triangle (-0.5, -0.5, -0.5), (0.5, -0.5, -0.5), (0.5, 0.5, -0.5). Or something along those lines, depending on which face of the cube you want to overlay. Hope this helps, Cheers, /Ulrich
