Description
Issue description
The description has the following sentence:
"The origin of the arc's ellipse may be changed with the ellipseMode() function. "
This should be:
"The center of the arc's ellipse may be changed with the ellipseMode() function. "
The word "center" is used for ellipses. The word "origin" is used for coordinate systems.
