Hello,

I need to create inclined ellipse geometry. It is to be used to create Graphic with SimpleFillSymbol having control template with a Path. On input, I have ellipse center point coordinates (latitude and longitude in decimal decrees) two distances (major and minor axes) in meters and angle between north part of major axis and east. By googling I have found some examples how to do it in already projected coordinate system, but how to do it if I have geographic input data (distance and angle).
I am not a GIS expert and I am sorry if asking something stupid.

Thanks a lot in advance

Hi Meir,

Have a look at the sample code for circle here: http://forums.esri.com/Thread.asp?c=213&f=2455&t=289039#898885
You can modify it to create ellipses that you need for your app.

regards,
David
