isometric only means the grid is isometric.

LC is 2D only, so an ellipse should be drawn explicitly as a projected circle.

One way to construct such an ellipse is to draw a projected square, followed by

 Ellipse -> Draw Ellipse Inscribed

to draw the projected ellipse inscribed in the projected square.

I am following the isometric tutorial here:

http://wiki.librecad.org/index.php/LibreCAD_users_Manual#Connecting_the_corners 

But I am not able to draw circles on isometric surfaces.
I can draw a regular circle, but it does not appear to be isometric,
meaning it it flat and not in same plane as the rest of the isometric object.  

Please advice.
Thank you.
