Hi,

I am trying to plot a vector field in 3d and i have great difficulty in doing so.
I have 3 variable, bx,by,bz that have (nx,ny,nz) dimentions which represent the vector field.

My questions are:
1) How can i plot this vector field. I have tryied a variety of things (flow3 etc) i found online but all advices seems to lack some part of information and i fail to reproduce the results.
I also whould like a hint on how i could overplot those lines above an xy image on the bottom of the plot.

2) Is there a way to trace the field lines and have, lets say 3 variables of dimentions (nlines,nx),(nlines,ny),(nlines,nz)?

3) Because i am pretty sure that no answer whould be sufficient explanatory, as you can't explain everything in a group discussion, which book/references whould you recommend me to read?

Thank you very much,
Petros
