Need command for ellipse, Isometric

Need command for ellipse, Isometric

Need command for ellipse, Isometric

(OP)
I'm using Autocad LT 2009 and do a lot of isometric illustrations. I use the Ellipse command with the "I" afterward to make it an isometric ellipse. In the CUI I see that the command for the ellipse is:

^C^C_ellipse _c

I would like to create another icon and add the "I" so I don't have to type it each time. What do I add to this command?

RE: Need command for ellipse, Isometric

That would/should be:

^C^C_ellipse;I

In macros, a semicolon or space acts as a return. The underscore is for overriding differntlanguage versions.
Note you need to be in Isometric snapstyle for ellipse command to have the "I" option
