You can certainly plot magnet field w.r.t. distance over any piece of your geometry. You must first create a data set based on the results of your solution - a cut line, edge, surface, volume, etc.. then you can create a plot under the results node - 1D, 2D, or 3D and choose to plot the magnetic field vs the geometry length on the data set you created. I don't know what your model looks like but a simple case would be to create a data set that chooses a 3D edge on the geometry under your solution data set. Then create a 1D plot and choose the edge you created; right click the 1d plot node that you created and choose line graph then set the y-axis to magnetic field and the x-axis to Xg, Yg, or Zg depending on the direction your edge points along. Alternatively, I think that Comsol will automatically set the x-axis to be along your edge in terms of arc-length. Hope that helps. Cheers.
