Re: [Gnuplot-info] Vector plot, sample length

[Thomas S. <t.s...@fz...>]

set arrow 1 from xstart,ystart to xstart+dx,ystart+dy
set label 1 "5cm" at xstart+0.5*dx,ystart+0.5*dy

choose xstart,ystart to place the arrow at an appropriate place
and dx and dy to give the arrow length the required length.
