Question by killer-rabbit · Aug 30, 2018 at 08:48 AM · axisrotate objectgrab

Leap Motion, grab and rotate object

Hello community! I've been experimenting on a Desktop app using Leap Motion in Unity where, I want to grab a cylinder with the Leap Hands and then rotate it around its center axis. I only want it to be able to rotate around this specific axis and not the other two, like a volume knob, and this rotation will affect the movement of another object in the scene. I used freeze position property on of the rigidbody for all axes so that it can't move around when the leap hands are moving. So I tried to do the same for the rotation too, but it doesn't seem to work. Could you please give me any ideas on how to do that???

Thank you very much in advance.

Hello again. I figured out a solution for this problem, I added these few lines of code to my interactive object:

     Quaternion objRot = _intObj.rigidbody.rotation;  //_intObj is the interactive object
     Vector3 inEuler = objRot.eulerAngles;
     if (inEuler.y != 0F || inEuler.z != 0.0F)   {
         inEuler.y = 0F;
         inEuler.z = 0F;
         objRot = Quaternion.Euler(inEuler);
         _intObj.rigidbody.rotation = objRot;                 
     }

It seems to be working, so my object only rotates around axis x when I grab it. The only problem is that it is flckering quite a lot now that its rotation is constrained and I don't know how to change/fix that. Any ideas would be welcome.

Thanks
