PowerPoint - Pie custom animation

Hello,

I wanted to animate a pie chart bit by bit. However when I click on effect options/chart animation, it does not work?

Thanks

RE: PowerPoint - Pie custom animation

Hi Patricia,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

Create your pie chart, maybe hide the legend and show data labels for each slice.

Select the Pie Chart and choose an animation for entrance. Once you have added the animation click on action 1 and in the action box below and do the following:

1. Click the arrow at the end of the box for options.
2. Select Effect Options.
3. Choose the Chart Animation tab.
4. Change the option to By Category.

These instructions should resolve your problem.

Let me know how you get on.

Regards

Simon

Thanks Simon, yes it works now. The chart animations was not appearing before, not sure why...

PowerPoint tip:

To copy an object on your page

To copy an object on your page quickly and easily instead of using cut & paste, try this instead.

Select the object you want to copy by clicking on it.

Hold down the "CTRL" key on the keyboard.

Click (with the left mouse button) and drag the object to the new position. Simple & quick.

Now try it again but press the "Shift" key at the same time as the CTRL key, this will keep the objects aligned. Great for making diagrams etc.
