Removing the Plinth
When using cutted line wing profiles in combination with a continuum and far wing background cross section, it can be necessary to remove the plinth of each transition line, since this can be already included in the backround.
See for example:

Removing the plinth from the opacities can be done with the removePlinth option
in the param.dat file. The hight of the plinth is defines as the value of the
line profile at the cutting length. And example is shown in Fig. 5.
Relevant parameters for this example:
doStoreFullK = 1
removePlinth = 1
