fighandle = figure(1);
%plot range and function
z= linspace(0,8*pi,1000);
x = -sin(z);
y = cos(z);
%plot line through center
line = ezplot3('0','0','t',[0,8*pi]);
%plot cline: REQURIES cline.m http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/14677-cline
%SET COLORMAP TO HSV
colormap('HSV');
cline(x,y,z);
%set view
view(100,10')
%set other options
set(fighandle, 'Position', [200, 200, 350, 500]);
set(gca,'Visible','off');
