Ellipses

Hi All,

I'm trying to use OMCircle to create ellipses that have major and minor axes that use Length, like the
OMCircle constructor [OMCircle(float latPoint, float lonPoint, float radius, Length units)] uses for radius.

I'm not sure if this is a good approach or not, but I am planning on extending the OMCircle class (OMEllispe maybe?) and setting something up that would simply derive the H/W from the projection during generation and then use that to rebuild itself as necessary. This approach is geographically unsound, but at smaller zoom levels it might work well enough.

I do not have knowledge of the math necessary to do this correctly, but I'm still going to play around with it.

There is a good possibility that I've missed something that already exists within the API.
