one of the dimensions. For example: `c*3@?` or `?@200*sqrt(20)`. For the `?` dimension the renderer will
calculate the value to fit the aspect ratio of the entity.

::note
Entities on :ref:`VIRTUAL_LAYER` contained in ``INSERT`` entity will not be rendered but they will be taken
into account while calculating the width and height of the ``INSERT`` entity. This is useful
to make calculations easier.

For example: To parametrize a part of the ellipse, full ellipse on the :ref:`VIRTUAL_LAYER`
can be drawn on top. This way by parametrizing the full ellipse the part
will be rendered according to the full ellipse size. In many scenarios it is easier to parametrize.

- Those entities must be packed into ``INSERT`` entity and parametrized as described above.
