You can put shadows on individual pie wedges or on the pie as a whole. Putting shadows on individual wedges makes it look as if the wedges are on different layers, so when you add a shadow to a pie wedge, it’s generally a good idea to separate it first. See Separating Individual Wedges from a Pie Chart for instructions.

To add shadows:
  1. Select the chart or individual pie wedges. Click Inspector in the toolbar, and then click the Chart inspector button. Do one of the following:

    • To add shadows to individually selected wedges, choose Individual from the Shadow pop-up menu.

    • To add a shadow to the chart as a whole, choose Group from the Shadow pop-up menu.

  2. To set shadow attributes, use the Graphic inspector.

    See Adding Shadows for instructions.
