Pull out slices in pie or doughnut charts

In doughnut and stacked pie charts, you can pull out slices in the outer ring only.

1. In the design window, make sure the chart is activated. For instructions, see Help for your design program.

2. Do one of the following:

   • To pull out all slices or rings, click the chart workspace (the blank area between the plot area and the chart boundary).

   • To pull out one slice or ring, click the data slice or ring once to select the data series it is in, and then click a second time to select the individual slice or ring.

3. On the toolbar, click Commands and Options , and then click the General tab.
4. Under Chart, in the Explosion box, type a number to represent— as a percentage of the radius— the distance between the point of the slice or slices and the center of the doughnut or pie.
