TransformControls no longer works after Three.js update

Looks like the reason is

Raycaster no longer works, always returns zero intersections

The reason is that Raycaster now only casts against objects that have the same matching Layer (Object3D.layers). So if your app uses layers, you now need to either make sure Raycaster has the same layers as all the objects you’re raycasting against or call raycaster.layers.enableAll() to have it operate with all layers (i.e. regardless of layer).

because in the app I’m in, we traverse TransformControls to place it in its own layer, and the raycaster now does not match the same layer.

Furthermore, the raycaster variable is private inside the TransformControls constructor, so it can not be modified.

To fix the issue I need to either

• fork TransformControls and run raycaster.layers.enable(transformControlsLayer) within the constructor
• or don’t put TransformControls in any layer other than default.
