Hi Sara

no worries. The units are mm, and use -avg averages the values and max takes the max over them (which is a somewhat dicey thing to do if you are going to do stats afterwards).

cheers

       External Email - Use Caution

Bruce,
The help file and wiki don't explain the units of the min, max, and del. I 
still can't get the data to sample onto the surface correctly and so I'm 
wondering if it has something to do with my assumptions about how this command 
flag is working. What unit are these values supposed to be in?
Also is the difference between projdist-avg and projdist-max that avg averages 
all values (including zeros) and max finds the highest value from the points 
between min and max?
Sorry to get into the nitty gritty, I am just trying to understand all the 
options so I can use them appropriately.

Thanks,
Sara Sims

   I think it is short for "delta" - how far about the samples are
