Qti plot, labplot, Scidavis, all. Only Origin(of those similar programs that I know and have tried) can visualize data in polar coordinates(r(phi)).
Figure_1
These are real data (points) and their approximation (line).
I understand that I can just use python, which I did here, and in general, for more serious analysis, I would be better off using it, but sometimes I want a quick result.
In general, I would be interested to see a custom coordinate system, not just the fields.

AlphaPlot uses the QCustomPlot library for 2D plotting. Currently, this library donot support polar coordinate system. I think the deveoloper of qcustomplot is currently in the process of rleasing a newer version which may include polar plots (I am not sure). you may ask regarding this in their forum.
I can only add polar plots once the library supports such a feature.

As i know, QCustomPlot support polar coordinates in last version...
And one question: why you do not use qwt for 2D plotting?

yes, but polar plots are still under active development. Interface may change drastically in next release of qcustomplot.
I went with qcustomplot because any way switching to next release of qwt needed drastic code rewrite. I was more familiar with qcustomplot.
