Glen,
Thank you for your reply. What version of Powerpoint are
you using? Perhaps that's why you can't duplicate the
problem. The lines that disappear are those that separate
the pie pieces. So if you imagine a circle, the outside
line (perimeter/circumference) stays intact, but the lines
separating one pie piece from the next disappears. For
example, say I have a pie that has 3 segments. One is
blue, one is pink, one is green. Before I ungroup, the
perimeter line is black, and the blue, pink, and green
pieces each have a black line separating them. When I
ungroup, the black perimeter line is still there, but the
internal lines separating the blue, pink, and green pieces
are gone, i.e., there is no longer a black border between
each pie piece. Then I select the blue piece, for
example, and use "format autoshape" to change the line
style. For instance, I'll change the lines to red,
dashed, and 4pt. This change in line style only effects
the outside border of the pie piece. There still is not a
border separating the blue piece from the pink and green.
Does this make sense?
Best,
Christine
