eps_type: eps_ellipse
The eps_ellipse features are point features, and have only a single coordinate. This point serves as the centre of the ellipse. Additional attributes specify the primary axis (X) and secondary axis (Y) of the ellipse. EPS ellipses also support rotation.
Tip: Tip: The primary ellipse axis is not necessarily the longest axis, but rather the one on the x axis.
From the EPS ellipse, we also can arrive at circles (since they are just ellipses with both primary and secondary axes being equal).
In addition to the attributes below, ellipses also make use of the brush and pen attributes as defined by eps_area.
