Thank you for your answer but it’s not really what I want to do.

The arrow I want to make are like in the picture attached.

Do you have a method to do that ?

The maskout() function will plot a set of streamlines in an area corresponding to whatever speed, direction, or other threshold you want (sounds like you want to use speed as a threshold), and all of the streamlines plotted will correspond to the current 'set strmden' settings.  Between each display command you will want to re-enter the 'set strmden' command with different settings and use different thresholds in the maskout() function.
