excel charts
Posted by mark kingsley on August 13, 2001 2:12 PM
Im using Office XP + cannot figure out how to customize an Excel pie chart. Can you offer assistance?
Dilemma: How to group wedges of an exploded pie chart into common wedges. For example, there are eight sections of a pie that are to be grouped into 3 separate and distinct wedges.
Any suggestions on the above?
Thanks for your feedback.

I believe that your describing a Pie-of-Pie chart.
Care to provide some sample data and I'll give it
a try.

Not a Pie-of-Pie, rather I would like to reorganize the pie into 3 segmented wedges. Each segment will be made up of smaller wedges that are grouped by some common thread.
Example:
G+A Expenses:
- Personnel 12000
- Rent 30000
- Other 5000
Sales + Marketing
- Promotions 25000
- Conferences 50000

- Royalties 35000
- Support 8000
Total Costs 165000

Aaron, any thoughts?
I'm afraid that you may need to find a more
capable graphing package. Aaron what do you
think?

Could you recommend such a package?

For my purposes Excel's graphing is...
...sufficient. So I haven't really looked around
for alternatives. Could you recommend such a package?
