    Hello,
    thank you in advance for any help you may offer.

    I am pretty new to scripting and I'm hoping this is an easy fix for anyone out there with experience. I'm using the LeapMotion SDK Unity Sandbox example, and I would like to restrict the selected objects movement along only the x and y axis. I found this method inside the LeapUnitySelectionController Script:

    DoMovement

    Thank you very much,
    Kevin

    If you add a Rigidbody Component (Component/Phisics/Rigidbody) to your GameObject, it will give you possibility to restrict object's movements along any axis.

    Thanks! That wasn't working with the physics I was using. I was able to fix this by resetting the z axis to 0 every frame in the update function.
