Hi Jörgen,

there's probably a way of doing this, and not knowing your other
constraints maybe this isn't an option, but the path of least
resistance would be to make a polar subplot and transform your
rectangular data to polar coordinates for the purposes of
plotting (rather than transforming the grid to polar). This way
you'll get your clipping "for free."

best,
