How to create a 7 levels pyramid

[Mauricio]

I can select, from Marketing Diagrams, a five levels pyramid, but can't
create a 7 levles pyramid, even after using the "Set numbers of levels"
select "Define", add ithe Format window, :6:7. Changed Value to 7. Now the
original 5 levels pyramid is just smaller, but no changes on the number of
levels.

Does't anyone have this problem before and know how to resolve it?

Thank you

Mauricio

The SmartShape has a limit of 5 shapes, unfortunately.

You could try building one manually. It's not that hard to get the basic
working.

1. Get the pencil or line tool and draw a triangle.
2. Draw 6 horizontal lines across the triangle - you will use these to chop
up the triangle, so get the spacing right. Use the Shift key while drawing
lines to keep them horizontal. Use Shape > Distribute shapes to get the
lines spaced equally, or just draw on the grid.
3. Select the triangle and the lines and choose Shape > Operations >
Fragment.

You should now have your seven pyramid chunks! Use Format > Fill to make
them fancier...
