Click Ellipse
in the Profile toolbar (Conic sub-toolbar).
Click in the geometry area
to locate the first point of the
profile, or if you know where this point must be located, use the
Sketch tools toolbar which now displays value fields for
first defining the ellipse center point, major and then minor semi-axis
endpoint.
These value fields are:
-
Center: H: horizontal
-
V: vertical
-
Major Radius
-
Minor Radius
-
A: angle
Position the cursor in the desired fields and key in
the desired values. For example, enter:
- Center (H: 9mm and V:
8mm)
Note that you can also click to create a first point
that corresponds to the ellipse center.
- Major Semi-Axis Endpoint (H: 65mm
and V: 8mm)
You just created a point on the ellipse. This point
allows defining the major semi-axis.
Move the cursor and click a point on the ellipse.
You just created a point which allows defining both minor semi-axes.
