Daniel-
One other way to get this effect without using the rotator tool may be to
draw a line over the area you want to highlight then create a wide buffer on
the line. Delete the original line and you should have a nice even area.
It won't have curved sides like an ellipse would, but for expediency it'll
do the job.
Regards,
Jason
