My cirlce borders are being cut on the left side. Help!

[dkprest]

Hello, In Power Point I am using multiple circles (blue with a white, beveled
border)in an organizational chart. In some of these circles the left border
is being cut vertically - so it has a slight flat edge on the left side. Not
sure why this is happening, or what to do about it. Any help would be
greatly apprecaited.

You mention bevels, so I'm assuming you're using PPT 2007. Could you
confirm?

If so, which SmartArt diagram are you using specifically, and which bevel
settings, etc., so we can try to repro here.

Also, it may look this way in editing view but be fine in slide show view.
Is that the case here?

Hi Echo
Bit of experimenting and I can repro this:

Steps:
Insert horizontal hierarchy smart art
Select all shapes and change to oval
Add a heavy outline and then a bevel

Cool. I didn't have time right then to experiment.
