This example demonstrates how to use `~.grid_helper_curvelinear.GridHelperCurveLinear` to define custom grids and ticklines by applying a transformation on the grid. This can be used, as shown on the second plot, to create polar projections in a rectangular box. .. image:: /gallery/axisartist/images/sphx_glr_demo_curvelinear_grid_001.png :alt: demo curvelinear grid :class: sphx-glr-single-img .. code-block:: default import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from matplotlib.projections import PolarAxes from matplotlib.transforms import Affine2D from mpl_toolkits.axisartist import ( angle_helper, Subplot, SubplotHost, ParasiteAxesAuxTrans) from mpl_toolkits.axisartist.grid_helper_curvelinear import ( GridHelperCurveLinear) def curvelinear_test1(fig): """ Grid for custom transform.
