is it possible to plot the velocity component normal to the poly line ?, I see there is an option to extract the tangential velocity component along a poly line (Velocity componenet in the direction of the line), I would like to plot the velocity component normal to the stright line instead.

Hi, this is not possible yet. But it should be easy to do with the help of chatgpt. The relevant code section is in +extract\plot_data_Callback.m from lines 94-130. I asked chatgpt to change the code to get the normal velocity, and the suggestion sounded quite reasonable.
