VectorScaling
is an option for VectorPlot and related functions that determines how the magnitudes of vectors are scaled for visualization.
Details

- Vectors are scaled in order to visually distinguish a greater range of magnitudes.
- VectorScaling scales the magnitudes of the vectors into the range of arrow sizes smin to smax given by VectorSizes.
- The following settings can be used to globally scale the vector field:
-
Automatic automatically scaled arrow lengths None constant arrow lengths "Linear" linearly scaled arrow lengths "Log" logarithmically scaled arrow lengths "Sqrt" square root scaled arrow lengths
