ploting velocity vector on paraview

Hi. I am modelling a 2D wave flume with waves and I have extracted vtk of fluid particles. I would like to know how to plot velocity vectors?

    This is sorted now. Need to go to filters-->glyphs and then change scale and aspect to suit

    Thanks for posting your solution !

    @Jvaz thanks for the explanation! Just wondering, did you ever manage to plot the velocity vector and let the colouring be done by the magnitude?

    I can get the velocity vectors, but I can't use scalar mapping to colour the vectors, since Vel is a vector..

    Kind regards

    Hi @Asalih3d,

    To map the values of the scalar components to the Glyph, you can cycle through the various components in the Toolbar:





    The orientation and scale factor remain bound to the vector, but you can at least have the color values reflect the magnitude of the scalar components. Hope this helps!

    Thank you - your plot looks stunning by the way :-)
