 \class QPolarChart
 \inmodule Qt Charts
 \brief Polar chart API for Qt Charts.

 QPolarChart is a specialization of QChart to show a polar chart.

 Polar charts support line, spline, area, and scatter series, and all axis types
 supported by those series.

 \note When setting ticks to an angular QValueAxis, keep in mind that the first and last tick
 are co-located at 0/360 degree angle.

 \note If the angular distance between two consecutive points in a series is more than 180 degrees,
 any line connecting the two points becomes meaningless, so choose the axis ranges accordingly
 when displaying line, spline, or area series. In such case series don't draw a direct line between
 the two points, but instead draw a line to and from the center of the chart.

 \note Polar charts draw all axes of same orientation in the same position, so using multiple
 axes of same orientation can be confusing, unless the extra axes are only used to customize the
 grid (e.g. you can display a highlighted range with a secondary shaded QCategoryAxis or provide
 unlabeled subticks with a secondary QValueAxis that has its labels hidden).
