Hi
I'm getting a strange result when using pstTheeDCircle (maybe i'm doing
something wrong, or did not understand the documentation). I want to
draw a circle in the xy plane with z=0. For this I use \pstThreeDCircle
(0,0,0)(2,0,0)(0,-2,0). However when I am plot it with Alpha=180 and
Beta=90, i.e., z axis perpendicular to the paper and pointing toward
us, I get an ellipse.
Am I doing some wrong? I think the vectors for the definition of the
ellipse are perpendicular, as mention in the documentation.

P.S.: Herbert this email in not in the pstricks mailing list since I am
