Part Ellipse/pl

Description
A Part Ellipse is a parametric shape that can be created with the  Part Primitives command. In the coordinate system defined by its property, the ellipse lies on the XY plane with its center at the origin. Its mayor axis is parallel to the X axis.

A Part Ellipse is in fact a closed counterclockwise elliptical arc, it can be turned into an arc by changing its and/or  properties.



Usage
See Part Primitives.

Example


A Part Ellipse object created with the scripting example below is shown here.

Properties
See also: Property editor.

A Part Ellipse object is derived from a Part Feature object and inherits all its properties. It also has the following additional properties:

Data
The object has the same attachment properties as a Part Part2DObject.


 * : The major radius of the ellipse or elliptical arc. The default is.
 * : The minor radius of the ellipse or elliptical arc. The default is.
 * : The start angle of the elliptical arc. Valid range: . The default is.
 * : The end angle of the elliptical arc. Valid range: . The default is . If and  are equal, or if one angle is  and the other, a full ellipse is created.
