About plotting the graph in DChart with no coastline

Hi Joe,
I have a Typhoon graph in DChart. I want to plot the graph with no coastline
http://apdrc.soest.hawaii.edu/dchart/index.html?dsetid=8693c08cd8bcca441...
As you can see there is a coastline when you plot with sea surface temperature k.
I checked the documentation, and I didn't find anything about the coastline.
Is there a way in configuration to plot the graph with no coastline?

Thanks,
Kin

P.S. I sent you an email about I could not create an account using kinwang.

How to remove coastline by editing code

Hi Kin, Unfortunately, you can't configure DChart to omit the coastline from a plot. However, if you're comfortable editing Java code, and you want to entirely eliminate the map from all plots, comment out the following lines in SurfacePlot.java: 
    if (showMap && !isNaked && !isKeyonly)
      rpl.setCoastLine(getMapData());
You'll have to recompile, of course (which requires) that the ant build tool be installed.
