There is such a thing, but it is called an "image".

The keyword you are looking for is AddCmd, not Overplot. You want to
"add" the "command" to the resizeable cgWindow.

No reason whatsoever to set yourself up in indexed color
mode if you are using Coyote Graphics routines. They
will work best in decomposed color mode and, in fact, most
of them work in that mode anyway. Including the cgContour
command. So this SetDecomposedState command has NO effect
whatsoever.

The code you want probably looks more like this:
cgLoadCT, 33
cgImage, C, /Scale, /Axes, Position=[0.125,0.125,0.95,0.8], /Window
cgColorbar, Range=[min(C),max(C)],Divisions=12, XTicklen=1, $
XMinor=0, Position=[0.125,0.915,0.955,0.95],$
Charsize=1.00, Format='(F0.4)', /AddCmd
cgControl, Output='tt.png'
Cheers,
