ellipse tag

Category: presentation container tag

Creates an oval on the screen. An ellipse tag can contain text and other presentation content, or in certain use cases can simply be used to draw circles on the screen.

When the height and width are equal, the ellipse becomes a circle.

Sample usage

<ellipse inline=false left=100 top=150 width=20 height=20 border=5 borderColor={green}>

Fields

Primary field

Category: presentation container field

The content to be presented and contained inside the box.

Secondary fields

Behaviour

The ellipse tag behaves in the same way as the box tag except for the following differences:

Defining both the height and width fields and setting them to the same value creates a circle.

If width and/or height are not defined, the ellipse will stretch to fit the size of its contents.

Example

<ellipse width=200 height=200 align={center},{top} {This</n>is a</n>circle.}>
This
is a
circle
