Summary0008964: Bad default glyph size
DescriptionIf I open a small model (bounding box edge length about .1) and add vector glyphs of the normals, the "scale factor" changes to 397794.090337098 and hence the arrows are ENORMOUS and it makes the model look like a single point. If I check "Edit", change the scale factor to .1, and hide then show the model (to reset the zoom), it looks correct.

Why in the world were we taking the different of
magnitudes when computing scale factor? We just needed to consider the maximum
value. This was resulting in humungous scale factors when differences between
vector values were small. Fixed that.

I think I am going to fix this, since it is MUCH better with this fix. However, we have still not fixed the underlying problem (using time 0 for ranges, as opposed to taking something better like the last time).

This fix will only work if time step 0 has reasonable numbers in it such as velocity. It won't work if time step 0 has initial conditions, such as displacement.

This bigger problem is documented in bug number 5659.

Tested local client, using can.exo.

Trying to form relationships. This is a test.
