How can I set the position of a mesh before I add it to the scene in three.js

Question

In three.js, I want to add a mesh to a position in the scene

I\'ve tried:

// mesh is a THREE.Mesh
scene is a THREE.Scene
scene.add(mesh)
scene.update         


        

Answer 1

I prefer to use Vector3 to set position.

   let group = new THREE.Group();

   // position of box
   let vector = new THREE.Vector3(10, 10, 10);
   
     // add wooden Box
   let woodenBox = new THREE.Mesh(boxGeometry, woodMaterial);

    //update postion
    woodenBox.position.copy(vector);

  // add to scene
   group.add(woodenBox)
   this.scene.add(group);
