  Bar Graph on Circle Path – Illustrator

  Posted by Hunter Hanson on February 18, 2016 at 10:35 pm

  Here is an example of what I’m trying to somewhat achieve here.

  I thought of blend, but, I can’t use the bar graph I made.

  I also tried to make an Art Brush but it distorts the top ends of the bars so much and there is no space between the bars.

  ANY input is appreciated!

  Thanks all!

  This is a pretty good solution. However in the event I have uneven data sets, which I do, I assume there will be one open piece of the arc. Additionally I have over 200 data sets and they are upwards of 300 million in value at any given point.

  I tested your art-brush-on-a-circle method and it actually looks significantly better than the arc warp (looks like the arc warp isn’t really properly circular).

  Here’s the same graph with art brush (including the gap: I drew a white rectangle in the background before creating the brush).

  

  You said you were getting a distortion at the top. Can you show an example of the problem?
