I have published a plugin called vectorfieldrenderer which plots arrows with 
orientation and scale based field values.  I wrote this for plotting 
deformation (eg ground moment as a result of an earthquake).  I've been 
thinking about adding ellipses to it for a while (to represent the measurement 
errors of the deformation) - and will probably be doing this in the next month 
or so.  However that may not be quite what you want (either the feature or the 
time frame!).  One feature of the plugin is that there is a toolbar to allow 
the user to rescale the arrows, something that is very useful when looking at 
deformation.

Pity I haven't put the ellipses in already!
 
Cheers
Chris

Subject: [Qgis-developer] QGIS Plugin - Ovals

Dear QGIS Developers,

I have long hoped for a plugin to create ovals based on a point layer. It would 
ideally have the ability to select orientation in degrees, width and length 
(with values contained in fields also available).

I notice that Pavol Kapusta created an excellent plugin called ‘Rectangles’ in 
the contributed repo to do exactly what it describes, but has anyone tried 
ovals?

I am not a python developer myself, so I am not used to the language. However, 
if anyone is able to come up with a ‘simple’ (dare I say it) plugin, or has 
created one before and it has not yet reached a repo, I would be very grateful 
to hear from you.

Many thanks,

Rob
