XY coordinates

In using the Thingy52 I can't figure out how to just get the just XY coordinates from the motion sensor - or any other sensor.  I'm trying to figure out if I can capture motion from the thingy. Any ideas? 

I've tried to understand the following to no avail:

  • Looking at the xyzw elements in the quaternionorientation and can't figure out how to just translate xy values
  • Looking xyz elements in the gyroscope, I don't think this will give me what I'm looking for
  • The accelerometer or compass will definitely not give me what I'm looking for.

Any ideas? Is this even possible with the thingy or should I be looking at something else.

Thx!
