Segmented circles..

Good ole fundamentals of Geometry.

Cheers guys.

This is another way to do it with a similar method to Egg's suggestion.

I had originally done this, but wanted to find something that would involve using a blend or alignment.

I suppose for the elegance if nothing else...

You could also continue to resize the line size on the star if you wanted to stagger the pie pieces.

Haha, brilliant idea Egg thinking out of the B.. Circle!

Good going, guys. Egg, you never cease to amaze me, and, dogbertbh, that's a pretty good solution, too!

Oh man, I am so lost here. I'm trying to create simple 4-part pie chart. Mainly, I want to separate each quad into a separate part so that I can color it and move it independently. I've only gotten as far as drawing a circle and two lines evenly cutting across horizontally and vertically. I'm lost after that.

Would someone mind giving me the step by step after that. I've tried a few of the steps found in this thread, but I'm obviously not doing something right because nothing is working when it comes to convering the lines to shape and breaking them apart.

TIA

Here's a very simple way to quarter your circle. It will not give you the guides that Egg and Dogbertbh set up for even exploding the segments, but it will give you the most basic procedure. Once you've got the idea, you can work on the more complex versions.

Thanks so much--I appreciate your helpfulness

You're welcome. Glad to see that Egg gave you what you needed.

Now that the segmented circles problem has been solved, what if i wanted to round the corners of my segments?

When I approached making the original segments, I had a few ideas, but now I can't think of an easy way to round those corners. The easiest thing I can think to do would be to alter the segments for one spindle, then duplicate to form the whole circle.

Any bright ideas?
