To your first question, there is a three shot answer:
1 - create your ellipse of the size you need and centered where it should be
2 - convert it to region (you can set the number of nodes in the converted
ellipse; by default it is 100; use the mapbasic window and run SET
RESOLUTION nnnn)
3 - use one of the rotation tools available
It is not like drawing it directly, you do not have an object identifiable
as an ellipse, but you have something pretty c;ose to it.

Subject: MI: rotated ellipses and moving nodes of polygons
I am trying to find solutions for two MI problems:
1) drawing ellipses under an angle (that is, how to create
rotated elliptical buffers). Apparently, MI can only create
horizontal or vertical ellipses.
2) an algorithm/code for moving nodes of adjacent polygons
(that is, I want to change the shape of adjacent polygons by
offsetting their common nodes).
I will summarise responses that arrive to me directly
Thanks a lot to everybody who tries to help
Regards
Zoran
