Confirmed regression fromv3.1.x.

Also, that last Azure job was cancelled, but not reporting to GitHub, so I can't restart it.

Restarted the job (side note, I don't understand the ACL model between GH and Azure).

I am not sure I understand why this change fixes things, but 👍 .

Since you were wondering, this came from#13593, which made autoscaling lazy. The call to_unstale_viewLim is inAxesBase.draw, but obviously, that was missed to be added inPolarAxes.

Owee, I'm MrMeeseeks, Look at me.

There seem to be a conflict, please backport manually. Here are approximate instructions:

1. Checkout backport branch and update it.

$ git checkout v3.2.x$ git pull

2. Cherry pick the first parent branch of the this PR on top of the older branch:

$ git cherry-pick -m1 e70c6f83be30076802398c6cf09b497077b4d1a8

3. You will likely have some merge/cherry-pick conflict here, fix them and commit:

$ git commit -am 'Backport PR #17422: Unstale viewlims before draw()ing polar axes.'

4. Push to a named branch :

git push YOURFORK v3.2.x:auto-backport-of-pr-17422-on-v3.2.x

5. Create a PR against branch v3.2.x, I would have named this PR:

"Backport PR#17422 on branch v3.2.x"

And apply the correct labels and milestones.

Congratulation you did some good work ! Hopefully your backport PR will be tested by the continuous integration and merged soon!

If these instruction are inaccurate, feel free tosuggest an improvement.

The call to _unstale_viewLim is in AxesBase.draw

Ah, that makes sense.
