PIE: tilt a 3d chart
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 |

tilt a 3d chart
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? - Jon ------- Jon Peltier, Microsoft Excel MVP Tutorials and Custom Solutions Peltier Technical Services, Inc. - http://PeltierTech.com _______ "Shevvie" wrote in message ...

tilt a 3d chart
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!
