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.

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.
Details and Options
- 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.
