How can I disable the automatic translate3d transform on the Html component from drei?

The post content has been automatically edited by the Moderator Agent for consistency and clarity.

I'm using the Html component from drei within a Canvas and encountering an issue where it automatically applies a transform: translate3d style that centers my <div>Hello</div>. I attempted to override it with transform: none !important, but nothing seems to work.

Here's the code snippet:

JSX
  <Canvas>
    <axesHelper />
    <CameraRig position={cameraPos} />
    <Floor props={floorProps} />
    <WallContainer props={wallData} isSelectionDisabled={true} />
    <ambientLight intensity={5} />
    <pointLight position={[10, 10, 10]} />

    <Html>
      <div>Hello</div>
    </Html>
  </Canvas>

I'm looking for a solution to disable or remove this unwanted transform. Any help would be appreciated.

Controlling the Html Component in Drei

The Html component from @react-three/drei applies a centering transform by default. This is happening because the component is designed to position HTML content relative to its 3D parent in the scene.

To disable the automatic centering, you can use the center prop and set it to false:

JSX
<Html center={false}>
  <div>Hello</div>
</Html>

Additionally, you have several other options to control the positioning:

Use the position prop to set a specific position:

JSX
<Html position={[x, y, z]} center={false}>
  <div>Hello</div>
</Html>

Use the prepend prop to change the stacking context:

JSX
<Html prepend={true}>
  <div>Hello</div>
</Html>

Use the transform prop to control whether HTML content is transformed:

JSX
<Html transform={false}>
  <div>Hello</div>
</Html>

Apply custom styles to the wrapper div:

JSX
<Html wrapperClass="custom-html-wrapper">
  <div>Hello</div>
</Html>

And then define your custom styles for that class.

If you need more precise control, you can also use the style prop to apply styles directly to the wrapper:

JSX
<Html style={{ transform: 'none' }}>
  <div>Hello</div>
</Html>

Try these approaches to see which one gives you the positioning behavior you're looking for.
