What does NO_ERROR mean?

I'm trying to use skEllipticalArc in a feature, but every time I give it a center that is not the origin (0,0) it produces NO_ERROR and doesn't create the arc.
Here is the simplest code that reproduces it:

How can I create an arc where the center is somewhere other than the origin?

var sketch = newSketch(context, id + "sketch1", { "sketchPlane" : qCreatedBy(makeId("Top"), EntityType.FACE) }); const initialGuess = { "ellipticalArc" : [2, 0, sqrt(2) / 2, sqrt(2) / 2, 1, 0.5, 0, 3] }; skEllipticalArc(sketch, "ellipticalArc", { }); skSetInitialGuess(sketch, initialGuess); skSolve(sketch);The initial guess data for an elliptical arc is in this format: [center x, center y, major axis x, major axis y, major radius, minor radius, start parameter, end parameter] All distances are in meters, the parameter's domain is [0, 2 pi], and the major axis will not be normalized for you unlike with the skEllipticalArc function.
