I could swear I used to do this, but I could also be mistaken.
Is it possible to place a half or quarter ellipse tangent to two lines?
Here's a manual animation showing how a constrained Ellipse with a tangent point on each line can yield different alignments of the Major Axis
Excellent demo of constraints!

That wasn't created in MicroStation I should probably add, before anyone might get the wrong idea.
thats a crying shame .. it looked so good...

The new constraints in that arrived in CONNECT possibly allow you to do the same, but as they aren't part of V8i I can't test them, and from what I recall reading previously, constraints were nowhere near in a finished state.
