HOW TO DRAW A POLAR DIAGRAM
The data may be drawn in a polar diagram if the following modifications are made:
For the definition of the axes and in the header line, X has to be replaced by PHI,
and Y has to be replaced by R.
==> PHI: angle
==> R: radius/mm
==> H: PHI R(distance),LT10
The parameters of the commands (i.e. XMIN, YMAX) remain unchanged:
X stands for PHI, and Y stands for R.
==> XMAX(360) means PHIMAX(360)
==> NOYNUMBER means no description on the R
axis
2-dim representations in cluster and contour mode are supported.
Some features are not yet available in polar coordinates
(command GELEMENT, smooth lines with WEIGHT > 0 and
others).
