I don't understand the question. I feel the answer is "change the coordinates or use translate()", but perhaps I am not answering you?

thanks PhiLho! ..i want to turn an ellipse (circle) around an excentrical point, a bit out of the center... its certainly a very beginners question and i have to do it with translate or so...

Code:
float angle = 0;
int ELLIPSE_WIDTH = 300;
float OFFSET = ELLIPSE_WIDTH * 0.15;
void setup()
{
  size(800, 800);
}

void draw()
{
background(250);
angle += 0.1;

pushMatrix();
translate(200, 400);
rotate(angle);
fill(202);
ellipse(0, 0, ELLIPSE_WIDTH, 180); 
fill(#FF0000);
ellipse(0, 0, 4, 4);
popMatrix();

pushMatrix();
translate(600, 400);
translate(-OFFSET, 0);
rotate(angle);
translate(OFFSET, 0);
fill(202);
ellipse(0, 0, ELLIPSE_WIDTH, 180); 
fill(#FF0000);
ellipse(-OFFSET, 0, 4, 4);
popMatrix();
}
