[ncl-talk] Questions on overlay Vector Plot (Legend, XAxis and CurlyVector Density)

[Dave Allured - NOAA Affiliate]

You can also thin vectors by subsampling or "striding" the data grid.  I
have used this method with good results.  This is somewhat different than
the effect with vcMinDistanceF.  The subsampling method gives explicit
control over which rows and columns are plotted.  See and compare both
methods in example 4 on the Vector Effects page:
