I found a quick solution, which involved using "Pedit" command and spline the rectangle to get an oval shape that is in the same orientation as the isometric rectangle. It's actually a rectangle in an isometric mode. If I figure it out - your question has given me some incentive to work on it more - I'll be wrote: But it's going to take some trigonometric calculations or something to define its precise axial directions and lengths. It will be tangent to the parallelogram edges at the endpoints of the red axial Lines. The Ellipse that would be the projection of the virtual circle inscribed in that virtual square is a challenge, because its axes do not lie along either the axial or diagonal Lines in the virtual square. Here's an example of an isometric drawing containing a non-rhombus projection of a square, which does not lie on one of the isometric planes : If it's a non-rhombus parallelogram, I happen to have recently started considering how one might construct the Ellipse that should go in it, but haven't figured it out yet. If it's a rhombus that does not lie on an isometric plane, you can draw an Ellipse using the rhombus corners for the axis endpoints, draw a Line between the midpoints of opposite rhombus edges and Extend it to the Ellipse, and Scale the Ellipse down about the midpoint of the Line, using the Reference option, with the Reference distance being from midpoint to endpoint of the Line, and the new distance being to an intersection of the Line with the rhombus edge. With Snap Style set to Isometric, and drawing in the correct isometric plane, put its center in the middle of the square, and use the midpoint of a rhombus edge to define the radius of the virtual circle that the Ellipse is an isometric projection of. ![]() Merely a parallelogram, or a rhombus? If it represents the isometric projection of a square, and you want the Ellipse to represent the isometric projection of the virtual circle inscribed in that virtual square, and that virtual square lies on an isometric plane with its edges parallel to isometric axes, then it will be a rhombus, and Ellipse's Isocircle option is the way to go. ![]() ![]() does anyone know any way that i can do so? thanks! Hello! I am trying to draw an ellipse on an isometriv drawing, cant seem to get the ellipse within the boundaries of an parallelogram.
