lines, labels = rgrids() lines, labels = rgrids(radii, labels=None, angle=22.5, fmt=None, **kwargs) When called with no arguments, `.rgrids` simply returns the tuple (*lines*, *labels*). When called with arguments, the labels will appear at the specified radial distances and angle. Parameters ---------- radii : tuple with floats The radii for the radial gridlines labels : tuple with strings or None The labels to use at each radial gridline. The `matplotlib.ticker.ScalarFormatter` will be used if None. angle : float The angular position of the radius labels in degrees. fmt : str or None Format string used in `matplotlib.ticker.FormatStrFormatter`. For example '%f'. Returns ------- lines : list of `.lines.Line2D` The radial gridlines. labels : list of `.text.Text` The tick labels. Other Parameters ---------------- **kwargs *kwargs* are optional `.Text` properties for the labels.
