<h2>Methods</h2>

<h3>.translate( [page:Float distance], [page:Vector3 axis] )</h3>
<div>
distance - Distance.<br />
axis - Translation direction.
</div>
<div>
Translates object along arbitrary *axis* by *distance*.
</div>

<h3>.translateX( [page:Float distance] )</h3>
<div>
Translates object along x axis by distance.
</div>

<h3>.translateY( [page:Float distance] )</h3>
<div>
Translates object along y axis by distance.
</div>

<h3>.translateZ( [page:Float distance] )</h3>
<div>
Translates object along z axis by distance.
</div>

<h3>.lookAt( [page:Vector3 vector] )</h3>
<div>
Rotates object to face point in space.
</div>

<h3>.add( [page:Object3D object] )</h3>
<div>
Adds *object* as child of this object.
</div>

<h3>.remove( [page:Object3D object] )</h3>
<div>
Removes *object* as child of this object.
</div>

<h3>.getChildByName( [page:String name], [page:Boolean recursive] )</h3>
<div>
name - Object name.<br />
recursive - Whether check in the objects's children.
</div>
<div>
Gets first child with name matching the argument. Searches whole subgraph recursively if *recursive* is true.
</div>

<h3>.updateMatrix()</h3>
<div>
Updates local transform.
</div>

<h3>.updateMatrixWorld( [page:Boolean force] )</h3>
<div>
