[Paraview-developers] Line of arrowheads

[Cory Quammen]

Kevin,

As a quick and dirty way, you can set up some rotations in the Glyph
Transform properties to make the arrows line up with your lines.

A better way involves defining a vector point data array that defines
a 3D orientation, then use this vector array as the Vectors setting in
the Active Attributes section. The orientation at each point should be
the same. You can use a Programmable Filter to compute and add this
array.

HTH,
Cory
