In order&nbsp; for me to calculate home range using the fish tracker toolbox my river needs to be a polygon. I've tried feature to polygon and I haven't been able to get anything to show up. Any suggestions? Maybe do something in editor?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Taylor</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 01 May 2014 23:26:59 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728488#M24065 TaylorPhillips1 2014-05-01T23:26:59Z Re: converting polyline to polygon https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728489#M24066 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Hi Taylor,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>You can buffer the polyline using the </SPAN><A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#//000800000019000000">Buffer</A><SPAN> geoprocessing tool.&nbsp; This will output a polygon.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 02 May 2014 11:37:37 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728489#M24066 JakeSkinner 2014-05-02T11:37:37Z Re: converting polyline to polygon https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728490#M24067 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Another option is to start an edit session, and right click on the polyline feature, choose "Replace Sketch", and it will copy the polyline feature into your polygon layer.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Best Regards,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Jim</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 02 May 2014 12:32:48 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728490#M24067 JimCousins 2014-05-02T12:32:48Z Re: converting polyline to polygon https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728491#M24068 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>You can also try the 'Feature to Polygon' tool.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Check out: </SPAN><A href="http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#/Feature_To_Polygon/00170000003n000000/">http://resources.arcgis.com/en/help/main/10.2/index.html#/Feature_To_Polygon/00170000003n000000/</A></BODY></HTML> Fri, 02 May 2014 14:12:24 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/geoprocessing-questions/converting-polyline-to-polygon/m-p/728491#M24068 AndrewChapkowski 2014-05-02T14:12:24Z
