Polar 2.0 open items #2255
Description
Followup issue of #2200 and the on-par polar milestone.
Features we could easily add
- radial and angular axis
spikes - support for
radialaxis.side: 'center'to display radial axis labels along invisible radial axis lines - radial axis hole (similar to pie
hole, mpl example) - done in Addpolar.hole#2977 - support square grid lines for category angular axes example - done in Polar polygon grids #2739
- some way to snap to NSEW corners during angular drag
- way to activate radial (and possibly angular down the road) autorange on double click (i.e. implement
doubleClick: 'autosize'config option - radial (and angular?) axis zeroline
- polar (r,theta) data-referenced annotations
- trace-specified and radial-axis calendars
- make polar respect
gd._context.showAxisDragHandles?
Potential features that require some thought
- How to replace legacy polar's
areatrace type? I'd vote for replacing it withpolarbarorwedge. Most of thebarlogic could be reused here. Moved to -> Polar 2.0 replacement for legacy "area" type #2810 Done in -> Add barpolar traces #2954 - How to replace legacy polar's (r,t)
bartraces? I'd vote simply removing them, unless someone out there finds them useful. - What to do with
r < 0values? In Polar 2.0 #2200, they are simply dismissed, but perhaps we should add an option to plot them on the opposite side of the origin. See Polar 2.0 #2200 (comment) - Date angular axes. See examples in Polar 2.0 #2200 (comment)) and some considerations in the last part of 1e81039#r26653662 Moved to --> Add support for date angular axes #4379
- Should we allow
angularaxis.periodto be less then the number of categories on categorical angular axes? See Polar 2.0 #2200 (comment) - Maybe add
r0,dr,theta0anddtheta. For thethetapair, it might be tricky to find a correct default the everyone likes. Done in -> Better polar setConvert + a few misc polar touch ups #2895 - Add another zoombox mode? Perhaps a pixel-based zoom using
polar.x,polar.y,polar.zoomscalars to describe it? See Polar 2.0 #2200 (comment) - scatterpolar (r,theta?) error bars
- Properly clip
scatterpolarglline segments
Activity
skip polar drag test on CI (for now)

Update: adding that
@flakytag seems to have fixed this pretty well.etpinard commentedon Feb 28, 2018
To my surprise, legacy polar charts were able to set the angular range:
https://community.plot.ly/t/custom-angular-range-in-scatterpolar/8676
🆘 We should implement that in polar 2.0 before 🔪 legacy polar charts in v2 🆘
fix and 🔒 category angular axis mocked range logic

@etpinard a request has come in for radial axis
hole(third checkbox above) and legacyareatype replacement (first bullet point).holeis straightforward enough that I think this checkbox will suffice to track it, but I'll make a new issue forareaso we can hash out the API without overrunning this thread.etpinard commentedon Jul 12, 2018
Sounds good!

Are there any timeline on when these issues is expected to be solved?
nicolaskruchten commentedon Nov 8, 2021
@elben10 this is basically just a list of ideas at this point, no one is actively working on these that I know of, but we'd appreciate any help anyone can provide :)

Hi - this issue has been sitting for a while, so as part of our effort to tidy up our public repositories I'm going to close it. If it's still a concern, we'd be grateful if you could open a new issue (with a short reproducible example if appropriate) so that we can add it to our stack. Cheers - @gvwilson
