Distance to Other Axis Defines the second axis using the distance from the
midpoint of the first axis to the endpoint of the second axis (3).
Rotation Creates the ellipse by appearing to rotate a circle about the first axis.
Move the crosshairs around the center of the ellipse and click. If you enter a
value, the higher the value, the greater the eccentricity of the ellipse. Entering
0 defines a circular ellipse.
Arc
Creates an elliptical arc.
The angle of the first axis determines the angle of the elliptical arc. The first
axis can define either the major or the minor axis depending on its size.
The first two points of the elliptical arc determine the location and length of
the first axis. The third point determines the distance between the center of
the elliptical arc and the endpoint of the second axis. The fourth and fifth
points are the start and end angles.
Axis Endpoint Defines the start point of the first axis.
Rotation Defines the major to minor axis ratio of the ellipse by rotating a
circle about the first axis. The higher the value from 0 through 89.4 degrees,
the greater the ratio of minor to major axis. Values between 89.4 degrees and
