topic Adding functionality to existing ArcGIS ArcMap toolbar through add-ins? in Developers Questions https://community.esri.com/t5/developers-questions/adding-functionality-to-existing-arcgis-arcmap/m-p/465560#M3124 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hello, I am wondering if there is a way to interface with existing add-in tools using python add-ins (or Java if necessary, but Python is preferred). In specific, I would like to add an add-in button to the 3D Analyst toolbar that copies the profile graph values into the Windows clip-board so they can then be copied to another program or excel as input. The workflow I imagine would go as&nbsp;follows: 1) use the interpolate line tool to draw a line over an elevation surface, 2) use the profile graph button to draw the profile graph and 3) use a new add-in button, copy profile, to copy the profile values to clipboard so that the profile values can then be used in another program.</P><P></P><P><IMG class="image-1 jive-image" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/349810_pastedImage_4.png" style="width: 620px; height: 591px;" /></P><P></P><P>Is this possible?
