  modeling and animating a pie chart

  Posted by Andrew Wilson on February 13, 2012 at 4:17 pm

  I need to create and animate an pie chart. I’ve started by creating a cylinder object and making it editable but I can’t figure out how to cut it into 4 sections.

  Basically, it would have 4 sections that are slightly blown apart from each other and then one section grows while another shrinks and the other 2 stay the same.

  I figured starting with the cylinder object would be the easiest so I don’t have to model the 4 sections into a perfect circle shape.

  I remember something about turning on point animation to make the sections change size but I’ll probably need a reminder on where to find that as well.

  Thanks.

  Hey Nevermind!

  Leave it as a primitive but make 4 of them and animate the slice value!

  Easy as… pie. (sorry)
