Hello,
I am wanting to create a plot that shows a cursor moving along the line of an ellipse with respect to a certain time frame. I was able to use this
question.JPG
to acquire a red dot that moves through each point along the shape, but how could I incorporate a linear time rate of my choosing. I'm pretty sure by default the program runs 12 frames per second. I need maybe like 3 or 4 fps.
-Thank you!

Run something like this:
tic
loopTimer = toc
... % Loop start
while ((toc - loopTimer < 3); end % Make sure you actually hit 3 seconds
% Your function here...
loopTimer = toc
... % Loop end
