I suggest that you 'convert' one vector data into a scalar (e.g. over
the Calculator-filter, and by using the functions: mag(<vector>),
iHat.<vector>, jHat.<vector>, or kHat.<vector> (magnitude, X, Y, and Z
of a vector) for calculating the desired vector-parts).
Then change the 'Scale Mode', of the Glyph-filter, to 'scalar', and
select the calculation-result as scalar-field.
