I am not certain I understand your question.

 

You can only draw on a work plane. Just like you can only put pencil on paper. You can't make pencil write a small vertical distance above the paper.

 

Now, some elements can be offset from their origin. But otherwise you're going to need to make a new work plane where you want to draw.

Please provide more information. Are you taking about the elipse that results from sectioning a cylinder by a slanted plane?

If I understand correctly I assume gergon44 is talking about an ellipse bend in 3D space.

Something like this example?

(Sweep along object with 3d picked path)

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.
