If in GCS_North_American_1983, set your dataframe to be in a projected coordinate system (NAD_1983_UTM_Zone_ for example). Your graph should then have X-axis of your graph in meters.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Hope this helps!!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 21 May 2012 19:43:38 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/3d-questions/profile-graph/m-p/503323#M3012 PrasantaBhattarai 2012-05-21T19:43:38Z
