Drawing an ellipse?

[BSS]

I have not been able to find a method to draw an ellipse. If there is one
available, kindly let me know.

Thanks - Jay

I don't think this is available in carlson survey.

Jay, Terry is correct the ellispe command is not in Carlson Survey, yet.
Let me work on that. As a work around, try drawing a circle and then
creating a block out of it. You may want to draw the circle with a
specific diameter in mind for sizing. Then when inserting the block
specify different x and y scales. For example maybe an X scale of 10
and a Y scale of 20. This would result in a shape that resembles an
ellispe. This obviously is not the solution to the issue but maybe a
temporary work around for you, hope it helps.

The block trick works well, and after rescaling it I can explode it.
Humorously the program will then recognize it as an ellipse.
