Drawing ellipses, circles, arcs, and pie shapes
You can draw an ellipse or circle by dragging diagonally with the Ellipse tool, or you can draw an ellipse by using the 3-point ellipse tool to
specify its width and height. The 3-point ellipse tool lets you quickly create an ellipse at an angle, eliminating the need to rotate the ellipse.
Using the Ellipse tool, you can draw a new arc or pie shape, or you can draw an ellipse or circle and then change it to an arc or a pie
shape. You can also change the default properties of new objects that are drawn with the Ellipse tool. For example, you can set the default
properties so that all new shapes you draw are arcs or pie shapes.
Using the 3-point ellipse tool, you can draw an ellipse by first drawing its centerline
and then drawing its height. This method lets you draw ellipses at an angle.
