如何在场景中将对象添加到网格而不更改其在three.js中的位置

Question

I want to keep the position of an object in scene and want to change the parent of that object from scene to any other mesh.here is a sample code http://plnkr.co/edit/fpjsUkOA0rH6FvG4DL6Z?p=preview

in this example when am trying to add the sphere to box it's position is changing.i want to keep the original position .try to remove comment in line 35 ,the spehere is moving towards box.i want to keep its position and make sphere box's child http://plnkr.co/edit/fpjsUkOA0rH6FvG4DL6Z?p=preview

Answer 1

If you add the sphere to the group, you just need to substract the group's position from the sphere's position to keep it in its original world position.

  var material = new THREE.MeshLambertMaterial({color: 0x00ff00});

  var boxGeometry = new THREE.BoxGeometry(5, 15, 5);
  var box = new THREE.Mesh(boxGeometry, material);

  var sphereGeometry = new THREE.SphereGeometry( 5, 32, 32 );
  var sphere = new THREE.Mesh(sphereGeometry, material);
  sphere.position.set(0, 10, 0);
  sphere.updateMatrix();

  var group = new THREE.Object3D();
  group.translateX(6);
  group.updateMatrix();

  // if you add sphere to group object
  group.add(box);
  group.add(sphere);
  scene.add(group);

  var m = new THREE.Matrix4().getInverse(group.matrixWorld);
  sphere.applyMatrix(m);

  // if you add sphere to box
  group.add(box);
  box.add(sphere);
  scene.add(group);

  var m = new THREE.Matrix4().getInverse(box.matrixWorld);
  sphere.applyMatrix(m);

  console.log(group.position, sphere.position);

If question relies only to position then the answer of Brakebein may be correct. But if you need also to revert scale and rotation , then you should make something like this, I think:

var inversionMatrix = new THREE.Matrix4();
inversionMatrix.getInverse( parentObject.matrix );
childObject.applyMatrix(inversionMatrix);
