Viewing fields: glyphs (U)<br />

The filter reads an Input <strong>and</strong> offers a range of Glyphs for which the Arrow0 provides a<br />

clear vector plot images<br />

In the Orient/Scale window, the most common <strong>options</strong> for Scale Mode are: Vector<br />

Magnitude, where the glyph length is proportional to the vector magnitude, whereas<br />

selecting Data Scaling Off each glyph is the same length<br />

An additional Scale Factor parameter controls the base length of the glyphs<br />

It is possible to select the maximum number of Glyphs to be displayed. Putting a<br />

number lower than the cell number can speed up the visualization<br />

Other option rather than arrows are available: cones, cubes, lines, spheres <strong>and</strong><br />

arrow2d<br />

It is possible to select the glyphs filter directly from the ParaView toolbar:<br />
