What am I doing wrong with this isometric ellipse?

[Anonymous]

Hey, I've got a problem. I was asked to make an isometric ellipse inside a cube. (There's a picture in the end)

I've activated the "isometric snap" and then I wrote "ellipse" and when I make both points (beginning and end of the ellipse) it doesn't fit... There must be something I'm doing wrong or I'm not doing. Please tell me.

Draw ELLIPSE, choose I for Isocircle.

... and first make sure you're drawing on the correct isometric "face" of things:  ISOPLANE [in the image examples] Right.

Also, there's a way to change your cursor to an Isometric Plane. In your 2009 version you should be able to go to your SNAP & GRID settings and changing your snap type to Isometric Snap. Once you have this set, you'll see your cursor align with your isometric planes. To toggle, press F5.  Here's a snapshot of the Snap & Grid Settings (2015, so some prompts may be different):
