three.js - How to center a THREE.Group based on the width of its children? -


i using three.js (r86) render group of spheres. i'm doing calling createspheregroup function external library:

// external library code. function createspheregroup(spherecount) [   var group = new three.group();   (var = 0; < spherecount; i++) {     var geometry = new three.spheregeometry(50);     var material = new three.meshphongmaterial({ color: 0xff0000 });     var sphere = new three.mesh(geometry, material);     sphere.position.x = * 150;     group.add(sphere);   }   return group; }

(assume external library opaque , can't modify code in it.)

// code. var group = createspheregroup(5); scene.add(group);

...which looks this:

as can see, group of spheres off-center. group centered, 3rd sphere @ point 2 lines intersect (x=0).

so there way can center group? maybe computing width of group , positioning @ x=-width/2? know can call computeboundingbox on geometry determine width, three.group doesn't have geometry, i'm not sure how this...

if want center object (or group) , children, can setting object's position so:

var box = new three.box3().setfromobject( object ).getcenter( object.position ).multiplyscalar( - 1 );  scene.add( object );

three.js r.87

Add a dynamic header in angular 2 http provider -

i have http interceptor built via tutorial https://scotch.io/@kashyapmukkamala/using-http-interceptor-with-angular2 the problem need have dynamic header changes automatically once changes 'mode' in app. service able tell interceptor change header, or have interceptor pull header (which string)from service each request. able throwing away patch method, call http.patch('new header string') set header string. call in service controls 'mode' setting. wondering if there way interceptor pull recent value service each request or if can add method http provider via interceptor? i've tried call service in interceptor each request returns undefined. because creating new instance of service or copying value before service fired , loaded/changed data. i don't want pass header string every http provider call because defeats purpose of having interceptor, id able set once changes or have provider fetch service before makes request. tl;dr : need add autom...

minify - Minimizing css files -

i want know how css files can minimized. currently, using external sites css minifier compress css files. however, after removing whitespaces, comments, etc, file sizes reduced 10-15%. how frameworks bootstrap manage make minimized versions kilobytes. as example, css is: body { background-color: #ff0; } the reduction goes 28 bytes 22 bytes other css files have lot more characters still smaller this. actually minifying code means it's remove thing code white space characters new line characters comments block delimiters it reduces amount of code has transferred on web , speed site load fastly.but unreadable format.
