All of the parameters in this editor come directly from Magics, and are documented on the coastlines reference page. Parameters not listed there are as follows:

Map Layer Mode

Specifies how the background (land-sea shading) and foreground (grid, coastlines, rivers, borders and cities) map layers are rendered into the plot with respect to the data layers. The possible values are as follows:

• split: the coastlines icon is split into background and foreground map layers. The background map layer is rendered first, followed by the data layers with the foreground map layers appearing atop
• foreground: all the map layers are rendered on top of the data layers
• background: all the map layers are rendered below the data layers

The default value is split.
