  3. Click OK.
  4. An Ellipsoid feature appears under the active Body.

The Ellipsoid can be edited after its creation in two ways:

  • Double-clicking it in the Model tree, or by right-clicking and selecting Edit primitive in the contextual menu; this brings up the Primitive parameters.
  • Via the Property editor.
