Thanks,

Is there a way in osg to have "pickable" bitmaps that have always a constant screen size. These object should represent a 3D location. Exactly like a google earth location.
To do this I'm using pointsprites but I can't pick them...

Pointsprites are just points to the intersection algorithm and so suffer
the same problem as picking lines i.e. they have no size. You have to
use a swept sphere or something like it to pick a volume instead of a
infinitely thin line.

There was a thread on the mailing list a while ago that might help you
along.
