Solved the problems, thanks. Another issue has come up. After looking through http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/matplotlib.axes.html#PolarAxes, I see a get_rmax() function, but there is no corresponding set_rmax(). Using set_ylim() causes hanging when it attempts to graph, and set_xlim is

contourf is not drawing in raster mode--it is generating filled polygons. What you are seeing is the fact that when it follows the edge of a masked region, it does so in a stairstep fashion. This is inherent in the algorithm being used. it seems that the filled polygon is composed of a
