PolarTicks
PolarTicks
is an option for sector charts and polar plots that specifies tick marks for polar axes.
- The following settings can be given for PolarTicks:
-
| None | no polar tick marks drawn |
| Automatic | polar tick marks placed automatically |
| { ticks,rticks} | separate specifications for angular and radial ticks |
- With the Automatic setting, tick marks are usually placed at points whose coordinates have the minimum number of digits in their decimal representation.
- For each axis, the following tick mark options can be given:
-
| None | no tick marks drawn |
| Automatic | tick mark positions and labels chosen automatically |
| {t1,t2,...} | tick marks drawn at the specified positions |
| {{t1,label1},{t2,label2},...} | tick marks drawn with the specified labels |
| {{t1,label1,len1},...} | tick marks with specified scaled length |
| {{t1,label1,{plen1,mlen1}},...} | tick marks with specified lengths in the positive and negative directions |
| {{t1,label1,len1,style1},...} | tick marks with specified styles |
| func | a function to be applied to  ,  to get the tick mark specification |
- For the angular ticks the following symbolic names can be given:
, 
, 
.
- If no explicit labels are given, the tick mark labels are given as the numerical values of the tick mark positions.
- Any expression can be given as a tick mark label.
- Tick mark lengths are given as a fraction of the distance across the whole plot.
- Tick mark styles can involve any graphics directives.
- The tick mark function
may return any other tick mark option.
Place polar tick marks and labels automatically:
| Out[1]= |  |
| Out[2]= |  |
Place polar tick marks at the specified positions:
| Out[1]= |  |
Specify overall polar ticks style, including polar tick labels, using TicksStyle:
| Out[1]= |  |
