Description
abs_or_rel
abs_or_rel

Location of the point on the ellipse (only in the case of mirrored ellipses):

  • absolute: The point is located independent of the mirroring.
    For creating the point the mirroring is not considered. The location will be calculated from the absolute starting point.
  • relative: The point is located dependent on the mirroring.
    The point will be created at the same position as a mirrored one. Starting point and direction will be mirrored too.
e
ellips

Ellipse or elliptical arc

p
prop

P is mathematcally desribed as
xp = xm + ax1 cos(tp)
yp = ym + ax2 sin(tp)
(representation of ellipse by parameters)

Note: Please take respect to the direction of mirrored objects dependent on the parameter abs_or_rel.
