[Therion] Tex code for depth and amplitude of cave

2016-03-16 Thread Sau ---
 Hello,
I am interested in displaying Amplitude and Depth in LegendBox.
Algoritms for it:
  Ampl:=\the\cavedepth+\the\cavemaxz
  \edef\histdepth{\the\cavedepth}

\cavedepth= Depth consist:  "\histdepth\" and amplitude: "\Ampl\"

I donn`t know TEX syntax well, who can write tex code block?
