easy Elipse()

The "right" coordinates? Well, an ellipse is defined as :

E = { (x, y) | x²/a²+ y²/b² = c } (unless I''m mistaken) where a is the width and b is the height of the ellipse.

It can also be defined in polar coordinates as

E = { (a, r) | r = p / ( 1 + e * cos (a - a°) ) where p is a scaling value and e is the excentricity of the ellipse. a° is the tilt of the ellipse from the a = 0 line.

we also clearly have

a = p / ( 1 + e ) + p / ( 1 - e )

Can''t remember what b is equal to. Someone?

If it only needed to be parallel with the x or y axis, you could cheat using some trig:

x = cos(angle)*width*0.5;
y = sin(angle)*height*0.5;
