Parameters

Center: Type: DXFReaderNETVector3
The center of the ellipse.
MajorAxis: Type: SystemDouble
The major axis of the ellipse in drawing's units.
MinorAxis: Type: SystemDouble
The minor axis of the ellipse in drawing's units.
Rotation (Optional): Type: SystemDouble
The ellipse rotation in degrees (Default value = 0).
StartAngle (Optional): Type: SystemDouble
The start angle in radians of the elliptic arc.
EndAngle (Optional): Type: SystemDouble
The end angle in radians of the elliptic arc.
ACIColor (Optional): Type: SystemInt16
A number for 0 to 256 corresponding to the AutoCAD Color Index (0 = ByBlock; 256 = ByLayer. Default value = 256).
LayerName (Optional): Type: SystemString
The layer name. If omitted, or layername doesn't exist, the CurrentLayer will be used.
LineTypeName (Optional): Type: SystemString
The linetype name. If omitted, or linetype doesn't exist, the CurrentLineTypeName will be used.

Return Value

Type: EntityObject
The new added Ellipse.

Remarks

The entity is added to the active layout. To add a full ellipse StartAngle = 0 and EndAngle = 2π.

Examples

Adds a new ellipse entity to the current drawing with center in (100, 100), major axis = 100, minor axis =50, rotation 34° with ACI color = 1 (red).

Copy

[C#]

Vector3 Center = new Vector3(100, 100, 0);
double MajorAxis = 100;
double MinorAxis = 50;
double Rotation = 34;
dxfReaderNETControl1.AddEllipse(Center, MajorAxis, MinorAxis, Rotation, 0, MathHelper.TwoPI, 1);

Copy

[Visual Basic]
Dim Center As New Vector3(100, 100, 0)
Dim MajorAxis As Double = 100
Dim MinorAxis As Double = 50
Dim Rotation As Double = 34
