## Query or set the tick values on the theta-axis of the current axis.
##
## When called without argument, return the current tick locations as specified
## in the @qcode{"ttick"} axes property.  These locations can be changed by
## calling @code{thetaticks} with a vector of tick values.  Note: ascending
## order is not required.
##
## If the first argument @var{hax} is an axes handle, then operate on
## this axis rather than the current axes returned by @code{gca}.
##
## Requesting a return value when calling @code{thetaticks} to set a property
## value will result in an error.
##
## NOTE: Octave does not currently implement polaraxes objects.  It is
## therefore not possible to query or set a @qcode{"mode"} for the
## @qcode{"thetatick"} property as can be done with the equivalent functions
## for @var{x}, @var{y}, and @var{z} axes.
