Percentage to Incremental Degrees?
Hi guys,
I have a circle that is broken up into slices that are evenly sized and distributed (like a pie). The number of slices can change via an expression I have tied to a slider. e.g. 40 – 9 degree slices, 30 – 12 degree slices etc…
I want to use the radial transition effect to reveal the slices. The transition control is a 0-100 percentage slider. I want it to reveal the slices in whole pieces. e.g. it’ll reveal it in 9 degree chunks if there are 40 slices.
Any idea of how to accomplish this? I’ve been at it for a couple hours but the math is wrecking my brain.
Thanks in advance.

I think it’s going to look something like this:
n = 40;
pct = effect(“Slider Control”)(“Slider”);
degPerSlice = 360/n;
degPerSlice*Math.round(n*pct/100)/3.6Dan

Thanks a bunch Dan, You’ve bailed me out more then once.
I eventually came upon a solution that seems to work:
singleSegmentPercent = (singleSegmentDegree/360) * 100;
segmentsComplete = totalSegments * (slider/100);
Math.floor (segmentsComplete) * singleSegmentPercent
