Hello.

I think that the right scale mode for arrow glyph should be "vector": in this mode, the glyph (the arrow) would be scaled according to the vector magnitude while it remains aligned with the vector.

I am not sure but I think that the scale mode "vector components" means that each component of the glyph would be scaled according to the same component of the vector, so the arrow would be deformed and may not have the same orientation as the vector. But if you choose a sphere instead of an arrow, the sphere would become an ellipse with its greatest axis aligned with the vector.
