## Implemented Interfaces

`goocanvas.Ellipse` implements `goocanvas.Item`

## Description

`goocanvas.Ellipse` represents an ellipse item. It is a subclass of `goocanvas.ItemSimple` and so inherits all of the style properties such as "stroke-color", "fill-color" and "line-width". It also implements the `goocanvas.Item` interface, so you can use the `goocanvas.Item` functions such as `goocanvas.Item.raise_()` and `goocanvas.Item.rotate()`

## Constructor

        goocanvas.Ellipse(properties=None)

`properties` : | A comma separated list of properties.
Returns : | A new `goocanvas.Ellipse`

Creates a new canvas ellipse item.

Here's an example showing how to create an ellipse centered at (100.0, 100.0), with a horizontal radius of 50.0 and a vertical radius of 30.0. It is drawn with a red outline with a width of 5.0 and filled with blue:

    ellipse = goocanvas.Ellipse(parent=root,
                                center_x=100,
                                center_y=100,
                                radius_x=50,
                                radius_y=30,
                                stroke_color="red",
                                fill_color="blue",
                                line_width=5.0)
