OK, here are some proposals: 1. length (2a) of horizontal axis length (2b) of vertical axis 2. diameter of horizontal axis diameter of vertical axis 3. length (diameter) of horizontal axis length (diameter) of vertical axis 4. length (2r) of horizontal axis length (2r) of vertical axis I like number one the most. -- Eero Nevalainen System Architect Indagon Ltd. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
