log scale and polar broken #24383
Description
[09192022_NaCl_0-2mmS_3mmD_0D_0-0.01inc_0.5dpm(high res).txt](https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/files/9944614/09192022_NaCl_0-2mmS_3mmD_0D_0-0.01inc_0.5dpm.high.res.txt)
Example of working code is:
fig, ax = subplots( 1, 1,
figsize=(8, 8),
subplot_kw={ 'projection':'polar' },
)
xvals, yvals = data
# yscale('log')
# ax.set_theta_zero_location( 'N' )
# ax.set_theta_direction( -1 )
# ax.set_rscale( 'log' )
# ax.set_rlim((0,max(yvals)))
polar( xvals, yvals,
label=params.get( 'datalabel' ),
)
savefig( f"{params.get( 'fname' )}_polar" )
close( fig=fig )Plot functions correctly(ish) but when set to a log-plot the plot malfunctions: the error ""posx and posy should be finite values"" and the entire plot is a blank circle. The 'r' labels are still not correct normally.
