x-y coordinates of ellipse
calculates x-y values for (part of) an ellipse; the ellipse can be rotated
getellipse(rx = 1, ry = rx, mid = c(0, 0), dr = 0.01, angle = 0, from = -pi, to = pi)
rx |
long radius of ellipse. |
ry |
short radius of ellipse. |
mid |
midpoint of ellipse. |
dr |
size of segments, in radians, to specify ellipse (decrease for smoother). |
angle |
rotation angle, degrees. |
from |
starting angle for ellipse segment, radians. |
to |
final angle for ellipse segment, radians. The segment is generated counterclockwise. The default is draw a full ellipse. |
rx
and ry
are the horizontal and vertical radiusses of the
ellipses.
points from
and to
are joined counterclockwise. (this has changed
since version 1.3.4).
