glyph type can accept "external" geometry.  Just provide a triangulated
surface of unit size pointing along [0,1,0] (I think, I need to double
check that) as input instead of saying rocket, etc.  Use Compute to derive
direction and then pass to Color with Colormap or AutoColor to color by
direction instead of magnitude.

Hi.
Does anybody know how to plot 3-d cones (not rockets) to represent vectors
in 3-d space.
I have the x-y-z coordinates of the position and also the x-y-z vector
components of each 3-d vector.
I would also like to color the cones depending on the vector direction NOT
magnitude of the vector.

Thanks.
