HI all,
I'm trying to figure out how to draw something in pixel or "real" units(inches, mm, etc). what I want is to be able to place an object according to axes units, but not have it change size as I zoom in and out, kind of like a marker.
The big picture:
I'm trying to make a plot that shows a vector value over time (in the case ocean current velocity and direction). The x axis is time, the y axis is magnitude, and at each point I want to draw an arrow pointing in the direction of the vector at that time. However, I don't want the size (or angle) of that arrow to change as you zoom in and out.
Any ideas how I can accomplish this?
See the enclosed PNG for an example with fake data.
