Hi,
maybe I misunderstood you, but the parameters which you can use in a
VectorColorFunction are {x,y,fx,fy,norm}. Just use fx and fy to
calculate your angle and make a color from it:
VectorPlot[{x, y}, {x, -3, 3}, {y, -3, 3}, VectorColorFunction ->
Function[{x, y, fx, fy, norm}, ColorData["BrightBands"][
Mod[ArcTan[fx, fy], 2*Pi]/(2*Pi)]],
VectorColorFunctionScaling -> False]
Cheers
Patrick
