Aligning arrows around a Circle in Powerpoint 2010

[Chris Waller]

Hi,

I have been given the task of creating a few Powerpoint digrams in Powerpoint 2010. I am trying to align some arrows around a circle and this is proving problematic. Does anyone know how to easily achieve this seemingly impossible task. Hopefully I will be getting Powerpoint 2016 soon, so that may make the task easier.

TIA

Have you tried INSERT > smart art > Cycle?

I perhaps didn't make myself clear. The arrows need to point out from the middle of the circle and at this moment I don't know if I need an odd or even number of arrows, but I would like an equal distance between each arrow.

TIA

There's no simple way to do that in standard PowerPoint.

We have an Add In that will do it but it isn't free (not expensive though at < $20)

If it doesn't do what you need simply ask for the money back within 30 days.

It's very easy..
All you need is (GROUP) and (ROTATE)!
Sorry.. but I don't have enough time to explain it.
See the attachment.

I was thinking he meant this. I agree it could be done by group and rotate though
