Movement constraint?
I was just wondering if anyone could explain to me if it is possible to constrain a polygon mesh or Nurbs surface to a selected region.
eg, to constrain a sphere between - 3 and + 2 on the Y axis?.
This may be a really newby question, hence the reason i posted on this part of the forum.
But any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

i am pretty new to maya though and have not had very much experience with some of the applications available in maya, i was wondering if you could give a little help on where to find the transform node of the object, thanks.

looking in the attribute editor there are always sphere_01 and sphere_01_shape.
in case you are not sure you could select the object and then press the up key which brings you in the hioerarchy up. the object shouldn|t be in a group cause then you might ending up in the group node.
hope this was clear.
