I am new to three.js and want to create an interactive 3D model that allows users to click on a “button” and creates a modal. I want the button to be positioned somewhere within the 3D model. For example if someone clicked on a cup that is in a house it would ask the same question when you clicked on that same object that doesn’t move. How can I solve this?
