Is there a way to suppress the contour lines and filling, leaving only stippling? I have been experimenting with it but no luck. I have a contourf of a 2D variable and a separate 2D array indicating regions of statistical significance (i.e. a mask, which equals 1 in cells where the variable is significant and equals 0 else), and I want to put black hatching over the contourf where it is significant. I can get this to work, but still with a black contour line surrounding the hatched region. I'd like to remove the line, leaving just the hatching. Thanks!
