gluProject not working properly

I am using gluProject() to find the screen coordinates of a point in 3D space so that I can place some text on the screen in the correct position.

the code I am using is

double ModelViewMat[16], ProjMat[16], winX, winY, winZ;
int Viewport[4], intX, intY;

glGetDoublev(GL_MODELVIEW_MATRIX, ModelViewMat);
glGetDoublev(GL_PROJECTION_MATRIX, ProjMat);
glGetIntegerv(GL_VIEWPORT, Viewport);

gluProject(10.0, 10.0, 0.0, ModelViewMat, ProjMat, Viewport, &winX, &winY, &winZ);

intX = (int) winX;
intY = (int) winY;

The values I get back in intX and intY are sort of correct but a little off the mark.

I am not changing the values of the point in 3d space but I am changing the values with gluLookAt().

The data in the ProjMat is not changing and the data in the ModelViewMat is changing which is expected.

It seems as though there is a scaling factor
effecting the data somehow.

Can any one help me out

Thanks

Try using your near clipping plane distance as the third argument to gluProject, instead of the 0.0. That’s the near argument you gave to gluPerspective.
