Ellipse tool
The
ellipse tool lets you draw circles or ovals. To draw an ellipse:
- Select the Ellipse tool
from the Toolbox.
- Click and drag the tool in your document. You can hold down the SHIFT key
to constrain the shape to a circle.
 |
Tip: If you hold the ALT key while dragging, the
ellipse will be centered on the point where you originally clicked.
Holding down both SHIFT+ALT will center a circle on that
point. |
The resulting path consists of Bezier curves and nodes, and you can edit
those nodes to create non-elliptical shapes.
