Restrain movement for one axis

Dear all,

I am trying to create a tent structure. However, I would like to have boundaries points move only on z axis, since I have fixed outline shape. The way I am doing it now is I have forces out of naked edges acting as cables. Is is possible to add restrain for x and y axis movement on those cables? Or there is other option?

Regards,

Petar

      AnchorXYZ with X and Y true, but Z false will do what you want.

      (note that AnchorXYZ goes into the ForceObjects input, not the AnchorPoints one)
