Hi,

I have a 3D model. I try to plot the velocity vector component on the Y-Z plane. I only want to show the Y and Z component and direction using glyph function.  
Does anyone know how to do this? Or, is it feasible to do this in Paraview?

Thank you.

Cheers,  
Katherine

Hi @katherine_1104 ,

Sure, just remove the Z component using the Calculator filer:  
`Vector_x*iHat + Vector_y*jHat`

Best,

Thank you.  
I just tired it, it works perfect.
