Profile Graph not plotting M values properly

ClaireParsons1 — Wed, 23 May 2012 11:44:45 GMT

I am trying to compare to TIN models along several cross section lines.
I have created section lines by interpolating Z values and then M values (linear referencing) for each section line.
One of the Tin Models is slightly smaller than the other - so therefore the profile line for this should start 15m after the profile line for the other TIN - however this doesn't seem to be the case when I create the profile.
i have checked the M values for each line and they are correct - does anyonehave any ideas as to why this is happening?

I've attached a picture to illustrate the problem. The line shown in red should start 15metres after the blue line.

PS - I've just had a look at the data in Graph Advanced Properties and the 'x' values do not match the M values, even though I have stipulated that these should be used as the 'x' value.

OK - i have found a bit of a work around but it is hugely fustrating that I have to do this.
Are there any official ESRI guru's out there who can shed some light on this?

Work Around
- Create graph
- Right click on graph > Export > Data > text file
- open text file in Excel and alter the M values
- Open text file in ArcMap
- Re-create graph using text file with correct M values.

I am having the same issue. Is there no way to have the profile tool recognize the M value for the route and stack 2 profiles correctly?

I have read somewhere that two profiles can be stack correctly, but I don't remind that particular tool. So, I'll let you know about it.
