Dear All

I have two data 3D sets covering the same region. One consists of the magnitude (scalar) whilst the other is a vector representing a plane normal at each location. I want a combined plot of "scalar type" glyphs (e.g. a circle or ellipse) at each point in the field that is scaled by the scalar and oriented by the normal.

Getting a scaled scalar glyph is fine, as is a oriented vector glyph (arrow etc.) however getting the combination is proving extremely elusive...

I've tried quite a few ways via <glyph>, <rotate>, as well as using a <forN> loops over the data which is then passing the midpoint and vector to <maptoplane> for later <clipping>.

All hints greatly received

Peter
