It displays and works properly through keyboard's ELLIPSE command.
It can be selected through ribbon icons also, except with the "center" option which does display "isocircle" but automatically selects "center."
"Axis, End" and "Elliptical Arc" icons have no issues. But, isocircles cannot be drawn with the "Center" icon.
Is it a limitation, or am I not doing it correctly?
Drawing an isocircle involves the Isocircle option in the Ellipse command [available only when in Isometric Snap Style], rather than the Center option, and it automatically asks for the center without your specifying that as an option. The Ellipse-by-Center icon calls for the Center option, which you can use when in Isometric Snap Style, but it's not what you want for an isocircle.
If you go to Customize the toolbar/ribbon/whatever that's in, look through the commands available -- my older version here [in the Draw Toolbar] doesn't offer an isocircle one already defined, as it does the others you indicate, but newer versions may. If it's not a predefined one you can just drag into place, you can make a User-defined button and have it invoke Ellipse and the Isocircle option:
^C^C_ellipse _i
You might want to have it force you into Isometric Snap Style first, just in case, because if you're in Standard Snap Style, the Ellipse command won't like your calling for the Isocircle option:
^C^C_snap _s _i ;_ellipse _i
You may find it easier to forget about an icon, and when you want to do that, just type EL and then I. Sometimes Command:-line usage is easier than menu items.
