How to fragment Shapes in PowerPoint
Follow the steps below to fragment shapes in PowerPoint: Launch PowerPoint. Change the layout of the slide to blank. Go to the Shapes button on the Home tab and choose a circle from the menu. Draw the circle onto the slide.
On the Shape Format tab, you can choose a rectangle from the Shapes Gallery. Draw the rectangle on the circle like you are cutting the circle from the top in half. The reason why we use a rectangle instead of a line is that if it is a line shape, the Fragment effect will not work. Make the rectangle look like a line. Ensure that the triangle is selected, and press Ctrl D to copy the rectangle.
Go to the Shape Format tab and click the Rotate button and click Rotate Left 90 degrees from the menu. Then place the copied rectangle in the middle of the circle. Hold the Shift key down to select all the shapes.
On the Shape Format tab, click the Merge Shapes button and select Fragment from the context menu. Now click outside of the shape and then break the circle apart.
The shape is now a fragment.
