[Qgis-user] Drawing ellipses

[Raymond Nijssen]

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:
