By applying a magnetic field of an excited objective lens in situ and using Lorentz transmission electron microscopy, it is shown that in this system the chiralities of the shells of magnetic vortices can be controlled by magnetization in the sample plane along various azimuthal directions. When magnetized along the nanowire in disks located on opposite sides of it, vortex states with opposite chiralities are realized. An antivortex is formed in the nanowire itself at the boundary with the disk, since the local direction of magnetization in the wire and in the disk are anticollinear.
