[Paraview] Rotation

Hello,

to the best of my knowledge the orient feature of glyphs can be used to 
orient glyphs along a vector field. The direction is used for 
orientation and the magnitude seems to relate to scaling. However I 
wonder how to roll the glyph around the direction vector according to 
some scalar field lets say.

Actually I would like to use a vector3 field as input which are 
axis-angle encoded rotations and use those to rotate the glyphs to the 
correct position. How do I go about doing that? Filters like "transform" 
cannot use a field as rotation input can they?

Best regards,
Tobias
