    248248=== 4.3 Vectors ===
    249 The vector fields are represented by arrows. The length of the arrows is automatically set by default, or can be adjusted by the edit box '''[num_VecScale]''' when the check box'''[!CheckFixVectors]''' is selected.  For clarity of visualisation, the number of displayed vectors can be divided by 2 or 4 in each direction by selecting the check box '''[CheckDecimate4]''', or '''[CheckDecimate16]''' respectively.

    251251Each vector has a color, ranging from blue to red, which can represent an associated  scalar value. In addition, black and magenta colors represent warning and error flags respectively. This color system is primarily designed for PIV data but can be used in other contexts as well.
     
    438438When a 2D or 3D field is opened by '''uvmat;fig''', a default projection object called 'plane' is created, so that all field plots (in 2D and 3D) are considered as the result of a projection. New objects are created by the menu bar command  '''[Projection object]''' in '''uvmat.fig'''.  The creation of a new object ('''points''', '''line'''....) can be initiated by selecting the corresponding item in the menu. Alternatively, an existing xml object file can be opened by selecting the menu option '''[browse...]'''. In each case an auxiliary GUI '''set_object.fig''' describing the object properties appears, see next [#a6.2Objectproperties sub-section] for their definitions. This GUI can be directly edited and object coordinates can be set by mouse drawing on the plot, see [#a6.4Objectrepresentation section 6.4]. To validate edition on the GUI '''set_object.fig''', refresh the plots by pressing '''[REFRESH]'''. Objects can be saved as xml files with the (upper right) button '''[SAVE]''' of '''set_object.fig'''.

    440 The names of the created objects are listed in the menu '''[!ListObject]'''. The properties of the object selected in this menu can be viewed by activating the check box '''[CheckViewObject]'''. Check '''[CheckEditObject]''' to allow object editing with '''set_object.fig'''.  The selected object is plotted in magenta, while the inactive ones are in blue. The field plot resulting from projection can be viewed in the GUI view_field.fig by activating '''[CheckViewField]'''. This option is automatically selected when a new object is created. Then the projection object used for the main plotting window in uvmat can be selected by the menu '''[!ListObject_1]''' which reproduces the list of available objects. The active objects are plotted in magenta, while the inactive ones are in blue.The object can be deleted by pressing '''[DeleteObject]'''.

    442442The properties of the projection objects can be extracted as a Matlab structure using the menu bar command '''[Export/field in workspace]''' of '''uvmat.fig'''. Those are contained in the cell of structures ''Data_uvmat.[wiki:ProjObject]''.
     
    543543When a NetCDF input file opened, its full name, including path, is displayed in the upper window '''[inputfile]'''. The names and value of the global attributes are listed in the left column '''[attributes]''', the list of variables in the central column '''[variables]''', and the list of dimension names and values in the right column '''[dimensions]'''. By selecting one of the variables in the central column, the corresponding variable attributes and dimensions are displayed in the left and right columns respectively. Note that the whole content of the Netcdf file can be obtained by the function ''nc2struct.m''. Input fields can be selected according to three options, chosen by the menu '''[!FieldOption]'''.
    544544
    545 -'''1D plot:''' to plot a simple graph, ordinate versus abscissa. Select by the menu '''[ordinate]''' the variable(s) to plot as ordinate (use the key '''Ctrl''' for multiple selection). Then select the corresponding abscissa in the column '''[abscissa]'''.  If the variable is indexed with more than one dimension, each component is plotted versus the first index (like with the plot Matlab function ''plot.m''). If the option '''[matrix index]'''('''[CheckDimensionX]''') is selected, the ordinate variable is plotted versus its index.
    546 
    547 -'''scalar:''' to plot scalar fields as images. The variable representing the scalar is selected in the first column '''[scalar]''', with coordinates respectively selected in '''[Coord_x] ''' and '''[Coord_y]'''. Alternatively, matrix index can be used as coordinate if the options '''[matrix index]'''('''[CheckDimensionX]''' and '''[CheckDimensionY]''') are selected.

    549549-'''vectors:''' to plot vector fields. The x and y vector components are selected in the first (...) and second columns, while the coordiantes are selected in '''[coord_x_vector] ''' and '''[coord_y_vector]'''. If no variable is selected in '''[coord_x_scalar] '''  or '''[coord_y_scalar] ''' ( blank selected at first line), the index is used as coordinate. A scalar, set in ..., can be represented as vector color.
