ScaleFunction

ScaleFunction
is an option for the vector field visualization functions that rescales each vector to a length determined by applying a pure function to the current length of that vector.

MORE INFORMATION

To use ScaleFunction, you first need to load the Vector Field Plotting Package using Needs["VectorFieldPlots`"].

ScaleFunction will ignore vectors of zero magnitude.

ScaleFunction is applied before ScaleFactor and MaxArrowLength.

Needs["VectorFieldPlots`"]

With no scaling, the vectors have exponential lengths:

In[2]:=

Out[2]=

Scale the vectors logarithmically:

In[3]:=

Out[3]=
