0006387: glyphs unclear whether using scalars or vectors for input
It would be really nice to either show scalars, or vectors, but not both (or Grey out one of them) depending on the status of the Scale Mode line. Otherwise, this is quite confusing. Also, as you change to vector_components, what does this mean? Unclear.
No tags attached.

The Scalars and Vectors combo boxes are grayed out when their value is not used. Note that vectors can be used for orientation as well as scaling, so it will not be grayed out unless you uncheck orient.

Almost. When you are glyphing by vectors, scalars is grayed out. But, if you are glyphing by scalars, vectors are still selectable.

Nope, that behavior is correct. As I said in the previous note, vectors are used for BOTH scaling AND orientation. If you set the scaling to scalars or off AND turn off the Orient flag, then the vectors will be grayed out.

Ah, Ken was correct.

Tested client/remote server.
