Hi

May be a silly question, but I have a pie chart out of
which i am trying to pull 2 opposing pieces of the pie out
slightly to highlight them. How do I do this? Do I need
this to be separate pictures?

Cheers!
 
Dear User,

You can animate pie charts using PowerPoint's Chart Effects feature in the
Custom Animation dialog box. Unfortunately, this feature doesn't provide any
option to animate individual pieces of a chart and its related text. If you
want to animate the individual pieces of a pie chart, first create a chart
and choose Ungroup from the Draw menu. This splits each pie piece into
several pieces depending on how many sides there are to each 3-D pie piece.
Select all the pieces that constitute the make-up of a pie piece by clicking
the individual pieces while holding down the [Shift]key, and then choose
Group from the Draw menu. Use the same process to group each individual pie
piece. Once all the pieces of your chart are grouped, you can edit the
options in the Timing area of the Custom Animation dialog box to animate
your chart. Since each pie piece is its own group, you can choose the exact
order that you want each piece to appear.
