Unfortunatey, I have to follow an existing template. This is what I did,
after creating the 3D pie, right click with chart square and select 3D view.
elevate to 50, Voila.

Your site by the way, makes me look a genius!
Thanks

Make a 2D pie chart, and forget about false 3D effects and shadows. These
only serve to distort the chart's data.

In fact, a pie chart is not as good a display as other chart types. Could
you use a bar or column chart instead?

I don't mean angling - but not sure how to describe what I need. The
chart's created as a 3D, but I need to view as 'flatter', as if it's a
regular pie chart but with a shadow at the bottom?

thanks
