How can I drawing an Ellipse on a selected profile view with known center point station and elevation?
Hi @DavidFan74,
You won’t be able to create an ellipse specifically because we haven’t added support for those in Dynamo yet. However, there are some other options I can think of.
Approximate with a polycurve
This might be acceptable if accuracy is less important and it’s just for presentation in the profile view.
Result:
Block reference with non-uniform scaling
If accuracy is important, then you can make a simple block containing a circle and then scale it non-uniformly. You can either setup the block definition manually, or you can do it in Dynamo.
Result:
Thanks, Zach. Actually, my question is how to put the ellipse or block onto a profile view? How can I determine the center point on the profile view if I know the station and elevation?
