Ellipse

The Ellipse primitive is a closed elliptical Bezier or Spline curve. The Bezier type is equivalent to a curve made by the Bezier tool. The Spline type is a Hermite Cubic spline, equivalent to that made by the Adding Curves

Note:  You can fill the shape using the Curve Fill tool.

Ellipse Properties

Ellipse

Enable

Toggles the primitive.

Type

Selects the curve type:

Bezier - Draw using Bezier control points.

Spline - Draw using Hermite Cubic spline type. This locates all vertices along the path of the ellipse.

Position X, Y

Determines the X, Y position along the plane defined by Axis.

Size X, Y

Sets the width and height.

Axis

Chooses the plane on which to draw the ellipse:

X - Align to the YZ plane.

Y - Align to the XZ plane.

Z - Align to the XY plane.
