Description

With this function you can draw either an outline of an ellipse or a filled ellipse by defining a rectangular area that will then have the ellipse created to fit. You can define how precise the drawing is with the function draw_set_circle_precision.


Example:

draw_set_colour(c_white);
draw_ellipse(100, 100, 300, 200, false);

This will draw a filled ellipse within the defined rectangular area.
