ViewPolar: Clipping at AngularAxis?

Post by ahe » Wed Aug 12, 2015 11:56 am

Currently, the Series is displayed on top of everything:

Is there a way to clip the series to the angular axis or the diagram area?

For example I would want it to look like this "photoshopped" image:

Currently the clipping is not possible in ViewPolar, but may be possible in future versions.

Thanks for a great idea ;) .

On the topic of clipping...

Even though the current behaviour is correct, people seem to be confused when points go beyond the minimum and to the reverse side of the axis.

Example (same data as the screenshots above):

This is difficult to interpret...

Could you maybe provide an option to clamp to the minimum of the axis, so that any point gets stuck in the centre?

OK, we'll add
- ClampBelowAxisMin (true/false) property for polar series
- ClipInsideGraph property to clip the data that falls out of max range (rendering stage clip).

in v.7
