[FIXED] Radar chart with multiple scales on multiple axes

Issue

I want to plot a radar chart with multiple scales on multiple axes using matplotlib. The official API example gives only one scale on one axis. (Scales are 0.2,0.4,0.6,0.8 in this example)

I want different scales on all axes. (There are 9 axes in the given example.)

I found an example of what I am looking for here. There are 5 axes on this example and 5 scales on all axes just like I want.

Solution

I think you can plot this with multiple axes, the lines are in the first axe, and other axes only shows ticklabels.

import numpy as np
import pylab as pl

class Radar(object):

    def __init__(self, fig, titles, labels, rect=None):
        if rect is None:
            rect = [0.05, 0.05, 0.95, 0.95]

        self.n = len(titles)
        self.angles = np.arange(90, 90+360, 360.0/self.n)
        self.axes = [fig.add_axes(rect, projection="polar", label="axes%d" % i) 
                         for i in range(self.n)]

        self.ax = self.axes[0]
        self.ax.set_thetagrids(self.angles, labels=titles, fontsize=14)

        for ax in self.axes[1:]:
            ax.patch.set_visible(False)
            ax.grid("off")
            ax.xaxis.set_visible(False)

        for ax, angle, label in zip(self.axes, self.angles, labels):
            ax.set_rgrids(range(1, 6), angle=angle, labels=label)
            ax.spines["polar"].set_visible(False)
            ax.set_ylim(0, 5)

    def plot(self, values, *args, **kw):
        angle = np.deg2rad(np.r_[self.angles, self.angles[0]])
        values = np.r_[values, values[0]]
        self.ax.plot(angle, values, *args, **kw)



fig = pl.figure(figsize=(6, 6))

titles = list("ABCDE")

labels = [
    list("abcde"), list("12345"), list("uvwxy"), 
    ["one", "two", "three", "four", "five"],
    list("jklmn")
]

radar = Radar(fig, titles, labels)
radar.plot([1, 3, 2, 5, 4],  "-", lw=2, color="b", alpha=0.4, label="first")
radar.plot([2.3, 2, 3, 3, 2],"-", lw=2, color="r", alpha=0.4, label="second")
radar.plot([3, 4, 3, 4, 2], "-", lw=2, color="g", alpha=0.4, label="third")
radar.ax.legend()
