      I could have sworn I've seen something like this somewhere in the past, but now I can't find it. Not under parabola or parabolic either. Surely someone has come up with something?

        Not that I know of. CASF FunShapes.rb produces elliptic torus, so it's doable, unfortunately it generates a single surface from which you can't "extract" the elliptic profile. I'll put the "ellipse" tool on my to-do list (growing fast...)

        And alternatively, what about drawing a circle, select it and scale it in X or Y direction ?
        Regards,

            I am equal parts impressed and grateful for the time you spend on ruby scripting.

            This eclipse script will be extremely useful. I'm suprised it's not native in SU. Thanks again.

                Godddddd, this is such a great site πŸ’š

                Kind of like the phrase... "It's not just a house, it's a home"

                Well, for here, it's not "the site". It's "the community".

                And yes, it is amazing.

                  Is there a link to download the Ellipse script?
