[gradsusr] How to make wind vectors smooth and clear

[afwande juliet]

Dear users
I am plotting biases in the Vertically Intergrated moisture flux between
850-200hPa and I plot winds at 500hPa. The vectors are not smooth and they
are not clear and too thick
How do I make them smoother and thinner but visible

These are the plot commands am using and attached is the sample plot
