You should be able to set:<br>
mask_poly[] = [];<br>
<br>
Let me know if that doesn't work. Do keep in mind that you need to
choose at least one masking region over which to accumulate statistics.
So that means, you need to select at least one thing in<br>
"mask_grid", "mask_poly", or "mask_sid".
If you'd like to verify over the whole domain, set:<br>
mask_grid[] = ["FULL"];<br>
<br>
Regarding the config file GUI, it's still pretty new, and we just haven't
gotten around to putting a link on the MET website yet. But we'll
put it up there. Thanks for the reminder!<br>
<br>
Just let us know if you continue to have problems setting the masking region.
And be sure that you're using the version of the config files distributed
with METv2.0. The config files are not<br>
backward compatible.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
