MATLAB: How to plot the vector for specified node

vector

I am using following command
quiver(xarray(1:4:end),yarray(1:4:end),DV_XX(1:4:end),DV_YY(1:4:end),1, 'k','filled');
which is plotting the vector for every node. I want to plot for every alternate node that means it will plot 1st node then do not plot arrow for 2nd node the again plot the arrow for 3 rd node.
Any idea how can I do that?

Best Answer

XX_t = DV_XX(1:4:end);
XX_t(2:2:end) = NaN;
and plot with XX_t instead of DV_XX(1:4:end)
