> This is about commands U and T in draw:enhanced-path (19.145, part 1, ODF 1.2). The arc is defined by a start and an end angle. But the specification does not say, how to create the points. There exists two reasonable methods, which are used by applications.
> (1) Intersect leg of the angle with the full ellipse.
> (2) Intersect leg of the angle with the corresponding outer circle and scale the circle then to get the ellipse.
> I think that the problem has to be discussed with OIC and people of the affected applications. I have no proposal.
