[IDV #OWY-715558]: difficulties plotting vector field



Austin,

If you hold down the middle mouse button in the display, you can get the
values for U/V.

Alternatively you may try to define your own Jython Formula. There is a
screencast on how to do this:

When displaying your formula, you should be able to choose a "Value Plot".

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
