Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Users have requested the ability extract a vertical profile plot from a transect plot and display it in the same window. At this point the only way to achieve this is to add a point that intersects the transect and plot in a separate window which is cumbersome for users.

Describe the solution you'd like Add UI controls to the Transect plot window that allows users to plot a profile by select a distance along the transect. The profile plot should be displayed in the same window. The control can either be a text box, a slider, or a combination and should be optional i.e. not a default behavior. The resulting profile plot should be queried separately so logic will have to be added to determine the lat/lon coordinates of the profile.
