I don't understand why that would make a difference.  Regardless of the
axis, the center point doesn't change, does it?

Subject: Re: Scaling around a center point...

If you take a non-circular ellipse, then stretch it, you change its
apparent "axis". You are assuming that the ellipse's axis doesn't change
(an inferring rotation angle from it), but that's not true when you
stretch non-uniformly.

Correct, the center point doesn't change... but what does that have
to do with it? I don't understand your question.

Try putting a big "R" in the middle of the ellipse or something so you
can tell how much it *really* rotated and you'll see what I'm talking
about.
