Hi, I have a shape and I want to find out what the highest y value is for an x value.  
Example: I have an oval, and with width 200 px. I input an x value like 78 px from the left and I want to know what the highest y value is that matches the x value (the top of the oval at point x) Any ideas? Any help at all GREATLY appreciated. 👼
