Ok, I added the capability to capture hodograph too. To capture hodo graph:

<image file="${islpath}/bundle.png" 
display="class:ucar.unidata.idv.control.RaobSoundingControl" what="hodo"/>

to capture skewT:

<image file="${islpath}/bundle.png" 
display="class:ucar.unidata.idv.control.RaobSoundingControl"/> or

<image file="${islpath}/bundle.png" 
display="class:ucar.unidata.idv.control.RaobSoundingControl" what="skewt"/>

Let us know if this doesn't work in tomorrow nightly release.
