Hey,
Let say I want to have a 2d entity floating near my 3d actor's head, in the same Z-order my actor is in.

I have tired doing
myRegion = Scene.GetRegionAt(actor.X,actor.Y);
myEnt.StickToRegion(myRegion) 
it doesn't fully works, because if there is another 3d actor at the on the same

obviously just using the entity's X and Y doesn't work, because its coordinates is near the actor's head (i use the new wme 1.8.5 GetBonePosition2D() thank for that new function !)
But then the z-ordering is wrong because WME sets z-order for the actor by it's feet's position.

I didn't see any any functions that can help me on the 3dactor.

Any suggestions how to do it ?

How about moving the hotspot of the 2D thingy, so that it's base point is at the character's feet?

Allright, how should i do it ?
Is there any way to set the sprite's hotspot on from the script ?

Each Actor has a diffrent height to begin with, and moreover, in different scenes, with differert the same actor has a different hight.
I know to get the head bone and the feet bone's position allright, but how do i set the sprite's hotspot to the feet and place the sprite itself on the head ?

Yes.
