<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Following up on my own question, I found out that if I scale by "Vector Components" it is possible to change the length of the cylinders with the second vector index, and the radius with the first and third. I need to
rearrange my attribute data as such: [radius_x, length, radius_z]. If I keep radius_x == radius_z, then the cylinder will not deform, and the cross section stays a perfect circle. See the image in the attachment please.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">BUT the problem here is that "vector components" also affects the orientation of my cylindrical glyphs. I can turn this off in the properties menu, but I need to orient my cylinders based on another vector attribute data...</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">I feel I'm getting somewhere, but if someone could give me an idea on how to now orient my glyphs with another vector data than the one I use now for scaling, that would be much appreciated!</p>

<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Dear community,</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">When I try to scale cylindrical glyph objects by a 'Scalar', it scales both the radius and height of the glyphs.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Is there a way to scale the radius by a Scalar1, and the height be a Scalar2?</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">I have an unstructured grid, and for each point I want to create a cylinder that can have an arbitrary radius and height.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">I thought Glyphs would be the way to go, but I'm kind of stuck with this issue.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Any help is much appreciated; or if you can recommend a different way to achieve the above-mentioned please let me know!</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
