: How do I divide a circle into equal parts like a pie chart with Adobe Illustrator? Is there a fairly simple way to divide a circle into equal parts using Adobe Illustrator CC?

@Gloria351

Like plainclothes said ... an easy screenshot-walkthrough for an even number of segments:


Draw a circle
Add a line across
Rotate line/path with (TRICK!) the copy button N-times.
Repeat action (Command-D on OS X).
Select circle and all sections.
Use the pathfinder tool and select divide.
You got segments.

Polar Grid tool... just tap the arrow keys while you drag.
Up/Down for inner circles, left/right for diameter divisions.



Or, Option/Alt-click with the Polar Grid tool to set specific numbers of divisions.

You can simply make a piechart with Illustrators own chart-functionality:



Fill in whatever % you want for the different slices, and then ungroup the whole thing afterwards, if you want to remove parts of it.

Draw a path across the exact middle (horizontal or vertical)
Rotate and duplicate according to your needs to define the slices
Use the divide feature in the Pathfinder to split the circle up using your paths
