ellipse

[Don Henger]

Hello Cmmers; 3.7mr2
We don't do allot of ellipse, but I found out that in this version you have a bug that makes you change the major & minor diameter to get the ellipse going in the right direction. My question is I'm creating a generic feature (ellipse) and I can report the major dia. but what would be the script for the minor dia.?? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to get ELL2 to report the H (minor dia).
