Has anyone got any ideas of how to make an interactive pie-chart in storyline? I've tried using the circle diagram from engage, which has all the interactivity I need but I cant amend the segment sizes to represent my pie chart.
The place I would start would be with the pie chart graphic itself. Find/purchase/create the graphic you are looking for and then create the interactivity to go with it. If segment size is an issue, you might think about having your pie chart on the base layer and then as the learner clicks on a segment, open a corresponding layer with an image of just that segment and whatever supporting text you're planning to include. That may require you to have both a pie chart graphic and an individual segment graphic, but I think it will serve your purpose and offer you the flexibility you are looking for.
Interactive pie chart, huh? This is exact the same thing I am eager to make. The tips also helps. I ever thought some UI chart control would help, some of them have a good resource for the utilizing of pie chart. However, I think this thread is more helpful to me.

Thanks Jonathan! Great tips and ideas, thanks for your help!
Happy to help, Sam! Best of luck with your project!
Hi Sam,
I was thinking along the lines of layers too, exactly the same as Jonathaan
Create the pie in MS-Excel, and have it on the Base Layer with "Click each segment to learn more" or similar.
You could then "explode" out each one of the segments on each layer, and have description/explanation etc. - using some of the Excel functionality.
