For a research project I need to draw ellipses on top of a polygon map based on a width and height field in my table. I was really happy to find out that QGIS has this functionality. Unfortunately I don't get it to work.

I managed to draw the polygons and draw ellipses on top of them, using two rules (rule based symbology). I use the "centroid fill" with an "ellipse marker". The marker initially has a fixed size (4x3) but I like to set these by two fields in the "data defined settings" tab. I can choose the fields, but their values do not overrule the 4x3 standard settings.

Can anybody verify this behaviour or tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I'm using:
