compass plot label FontSize

Please could you tell me if it is possible to specify a font size of, say, 14 for the r and theta axes of a compass plot? I have tried using ax = gca and ax.FontSize =... and rticklabels but I can't get anything to work. Apologies if I have missed some documentation...

compass() still uses the old polar axes that are actually cartesian axes with circles and radii to appear as polar axes. The tick labels are just text objects since there aren't really theta or rho axis-components.

Get the tick labels by searching text objects.

u = [5 3 -4 -3 5];
v = [1 5 3 -2 -6];
h = compass(u,v);
ax = ancestor(h(1),'axes');
th = findall(ax,'Type','Text');
set(th, 'FontSize', 14)

Brilliant, thank you!!
