Py5Graphics.ellipse()

Draws an ellipse (oval) to the screen.

Description

Draws an ellipse (oval) to the screen. An ellipse with equal width and height is a circle. By default, the first two parameters set the location, and the third and fourth parameters set the shape’s width and height. The origin may be changed with the Py5Graphics.ellipse_mode() function.

This method is the same as ellipse() but linked to a Py5Graphics object. To see example code for how it can be used, see ellipse().

Underlying Processing method: PGraphics.ellipse
