Please note that matplotlib already addresses these issues. See, for
example, this discussion:
http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-
[email protected]/msg04785.html
We just have to change our polar plots to use the matplotlib polar
plotting mechanism. That's something I've been meaning to do anyway,
especially now that we use the matplotlib axes instead of our own. I
probably won't get to it in the near future, though. Someone else is more
than welcome to do it.
Basically, right now, our "polar plots" are just normal plots with the
coordinates undergoing the polar transformation on each point. I think it
might be good to change this so that our polar plots actually use the
polar projection to give matplotlib polar plots. See
Examples of matplotlib polar plots:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/polar_bar.html
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/polar_demo.html
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/pylab_examples/polar_scatter.html
or more exciting stuff that is currently in matplotlib and being refined:
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/axes_grid/demo_curvelinear_grid.html
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/axes_grid/demo_floating_axis.html
Thanks,
Jason
