I would expect the geoprocessing service to set m=0 (start) to the first point in the path/line that was passed to the service. That way the profile always starts where the user clicked first. It SEEMS like the geoprocessing service is setting m=0 to the smallest x value. I am a relatively new flex developer so perhaps I am missing something.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I know it is still in beta. Hopefully someone on that team can respond!?!?!?!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Dave Shaeffer </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>[ATTACH=CONFIG]30813[/ATTACH]</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Fri, 24 Jan 2014 15:41:12 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/beta-elevation-profile-geoprocessing-service-m/m-p/666885#M7213 Anonymous User 2014-01-24T15:41:12Z Re: Beta Elevation Profile Geoprocessing Service - m value issues https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/beta-elevation-profile-geoprocessing-service-m/m-p/666886#M7214 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Original User: waxg</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>The profile service does set m=0 for the first vertex on the input line.

Thanks for the quick response. Your team is by far the most responsive group at ESRI. Keep up the good work!</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I was getting wrong M values when setting returnM to true. It was random. I am sure I was doing something wrong. The problem seems to have resolved itself between my original post and now. My Flex application came out great and our project managers love it. Big win! </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Dave</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 22 Apr 2014 23:32:33 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/mapping-questions/beta-elevation-profile-geoprocessing-service-m/m-p/666887#M7215 DavidShaeffer 2014-04-22T23:32:33Z
