Hi ;

I hope eDave is reading this question.   

I need to draw a smooth ellipse with lines to create an antenna. Does anyone know something to do that?

thanks in advance.

    Hi

    You would probably have to draw this as small incremental steps, so setting some kind of resolution and calculating points along the ellipse.

    combine the math with axlDBCreatePath to create a line/cline on the wanted subclass.

    Best regards

    Ole

    Thanks for reply. I have been doing that for many times but it still not so smooth, so i wondered if there exists such a tool or skill. Thanks.
