drawEllipse

Description

Draws an ellipse on the map. Just like with marker or trigger area, negative a and b will result in hexagon.

Syntax

map drawEllipse [centre, a, b, angle, color, fill, alignWithMap]

Parameters:

• map: Control
• centre: Object or Position2D, Position3D - ellipse's centre
• a: Number - horizontal (x) radius
• b: Number - vertical (y) radius
• angle: Number - angle of rotation in degrees
• color: Color (RGBA) - line color
• fill: String - fill texture file or Procedural Textures. Note that the file texture will not rotate with rectangle, use drawIcon for that. If fill texture is not empty, set line color to white [1,1,1,1]
• alignWithMap: Boolean - (Optional, default true) - when false the shape will not follow map rotation. (since Arma3 2.18)

Returns: Nothing
