StreamColorFunctionScaling
is an option for graphics functions that specifies whether arguments supplied to a stream color function should be scaled to lie between 0 and 1.
Details

- The usual default setting is StreamColorFunctionScaling->True.
- With StreamColorFunctionScaling->False original unscaled values are fed to the stream color function.
- StreamColorFunctionScaling->{s1,s2,…} takes si to specify whether to scale argument i of the stream color function.
- Scaling is done so as to make the minimum and maximum values of all variables lie between 0 and 1.

By default, scaled values are used to color the streamlines:
Use StreamColorFunctionScaling->False to use unscaled values:
