Tell me, please, is there a way in Morpheus to froze not the entire cell, but only its center of mass?

So that it retains the ability to oscillate the cell membrane, but cannot go far or be moved far. Conventionally speaking, I would like to pin its center of mass to specific coordinates of the computational domain.

Thanks!

Use DirectedMotion together with tracking of the cell displacement

<PropertyVector symbol="cell.center.initial" value="cell.center"/>
<PropertyVector symbol="cell.center.displacement" value="0.0, 0.0, 0.0"/>
<VectorEquation symbol-ref="cell.center.displacement">
   <Expression>cell.center - cell.center.initial</Expression>
</VectorEquation>
<DirectedMotion strength="0.005" direction="- cell.center.displacement"/>

best
