I think this is not True, but I may misunderstood you. Can you post an example that does not work? Here is a simple example that shows it does work. But I hardly use polar coordinate, and my example could be too simple. ax = subplot(111, polar=True) aa = np.indices((10,10)) x = np.linspace(0., np.pi*2, 10) y = np.linspace(0., 10, 10) ax.pcolormesh(x, y, aa[0], cmap="gray") ax.contour(x, y, aa[0]) Both pcolormesh and contour gives a consistent result. However, I think, while the resulting contour lines are drawn in polar coordinate system, the actual contouring is done in rectlinear cooridinate system. So there may be some caveats.
