d3 (v4) zoom using transitions doesn't seem to work - d3.js

I am using the d3 zoom behaviour and attempting to use a transition for both a translateTo and a scaleTo at the same time. If I make the calls to zoom without a transition everything works fine. If I use a transition for just one of the transforms it also works, but if I attempt to use a transition for both it fails (it appears to only apply the first transform). I have a JSFiddle with several combinations here: JSFiddle
Here's the code that isn't working as I expect
svg.transition()
.duration(750)
.call(zoom.scaleTo, 2)
.call(zoom.translateTo, 50, 50)

You can do like this:
svg.transition()
.duration(750)
.call(zoom.scaleTo, 2)
.transition() <--- this is missing.
.call(zoom.translateTo, 50, 50)
First zoom then translate.
working code here
EDIT
Performing zoom and translate both # same time you need to tween.
function twizzle(selection, duration) {
d3.select(selection).transition()
.duration(duration)
.tween("attr:transform", function() {
//interpolate from start to end state
var i = d3.interpolateString("scale(1)translate(0,0)", "scale(2)translate(50,50)");
return function(t) {
selection.attr("transform", i(t));
};
});
}
Now call the function like this:
d3.select('body')
.append('button')
.text('transition both - scale first')
.on('click', function() {
//on click call the function created above
group.call(twizzle, 750) <-- perform the scale and translate on the group not on the SVG.
})

D3 Selection Highlight (efficiency?)

I have a simple visual of many rects, over 100 I'd say. For aesthetic purposes I want to create a high light effect on mouse click. I also wanted to make this effect somewhat intuitive by removing that effect once the user clicks on a new rect. However I couldn't get this to work without resorting to a d3.selectAll() call, so I'm thinking this approach might not be ideal if this project gets any bigger. Here is the code:
.on('click.highlight', function() {
//set any previously highlighted rects back to normal color/brightness
d3.selectAll('.highlight').transition().duration(250)
.style('fill', function(d) { return d3.rgb(d.color)})
d3.select(this).classed('highlight',true);
//now it's safe to assign the current highlighted rect a brighter hue... i think
d3.select(this).transition().duration(250)
.style('fill', function(d) { return d3.rgb(d.color).brighter(.5)})
})
Though this code does what I wanted it to do, but presumably there could only ever be 1 other highlight rect to worry about at any give time. So again, I'm not sure that using d3.selectAll() is warranted here.
So anyway, is there a more efficient way? I'd like to keep it all within one .on('click') function if possible.
If you are looking to avoid use of .selectAll, you could create a selection of one rect that contains the last clicked rectangle. Each time you click on a rectangle:
unhighlight the previously selected highlighted rect
update that selection to reflect the most recently clicked rectangle
highlight the newly selected rect
I use the variable highlightedRect to hold the selection that will allow the above workflow:
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width",600)
.attr("height",400);
var highlightedRect = d3.select(null);
var rects = svg.selectAll("rect")
.data(d3.range(1600))
.enter()
.append("rect")
.attr("y",function(d) { return Math.floor(d/50)*12; })
.attr("x",function(d) { return d%50 * 12 })
.attr("width",11)
.attr("height",11)
.attr("stroke","white")
.on("click",function(d) {
// Recolor the last clicked rect.
highlightedRect.attr("fill","black");
// Color the new one:
highlightedRect = d3.select(this);
highlightedRect.attr("fill","steelblue");
})

Is it expensive to call D3.js transition multiple times during scroll?

I have a scroll event listener that triggers a D3.js transition when the page hits a specific scroll target. The animation works nicely and doesn't lag, but the transition is called on each scroll position. Is this expensive? After the first draw() the #mySvgShape is set to fill-opacity:0.8. Is it an issue to keep calling the transition during the scroll?
scrollPosition is the percentage (0 to 1) of the page that has been scrolled.
function draw(scrollPosition) {
if (scrollPosition > 0.2 && scrollPosition < 0.4) {
el.select('#mySvgShape')
.transition()
.style("fill-opacity", "0.8");
}else{
el.select('#mySvgShape')
.transition()
.style("fill-opacity", "1e-6");
}
You can check if there is any transition happening and, if yes, do not call the transition again.
To do that, use d3.active:
d3.active(node[, name]):
returns the active transition on the specified node with the specified name, if any.
So, your if can be changed to this:
if (percentage > 0.2 && percentage < 0.4) {
if (!d3.active(d3.select("#dam-fill").node())) {
d3.select("#dam-fill")
.transition()
.duration(5000)
.style("fill-opacity", "1")
.attr("transform", "translate(-50, -200) scale(1.2,1.2)");
}
}
Here is your updated fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/gerardofurtado/ze2dc976/
I changed the transition to 5000 ms just to show that, if you scroll up or down while the transition is happening, it doesn't stop (as in your fiddle). Thus, not only calling transition multiple times in the scroll is expansive, it will mess the transition.

Disable resize of brush on range chart from focus charts (dc.js, d3.js) - Solved

Please note - there is a solution for part of this problem by Gordon Woodhull in Disable brush on range chart before selecting a scale from the dropdown/on page load(dc.js,d3.js)
In addition,there is a partial solution at the end this question.
Furthermore there are two fiddles:
1) https://jsfiddle.net/dani2011/4dsjjdan/1/
2) https://jsfiddle.net/dani2011/uzg48yk7/1/ (with partial solution)
Need to disable resize of the brush on range chart (timeSlider) by dragging the line within the focus charts (bitChart,bitChart2). As Gordon Woodhull suggested (Disable brush resize (DC.js, D3.js) try to enable only pan without zoom.
Current behavior:
1)
Dragging the line on bitChart2 (focus chart) pans the brush until the borders of the timeChart. Once reaching the borders,the brush shrinks. The other focus chart (bitChart) resizes the brush of the range chart during drag of its line.
2)
When selecting a span for the brush from the dropdown only the .on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) { of bitChart2 is loaded and not the .on("zoomed"... of bitChart.
Print screens from the console:
a) Selecting scale from the dropdown
b) Dragging line on bitChart:
c) Dragging line on bitChart2:
3)
For both bitChart and bitChart2 the value of scale is 1 and the position
is 0,0:
.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
//var zoom = d3.behavior.zoom()
// .translate([0, 0])
//.scale(1).scaleExtent([1, 1])
var zoom = d3.behavior.zoom()
var scale = zoom.scale(); var position = zoom.translate();
js file
The following implementations did not solve the issue:
**option 1**
bitChart.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
d3.behavior.zoom().on("zoom", null);//doesn't stop zoom
//event needs svg element(tried different options),doesn't work
d3.behavior.zoom().scale(1).scaleExtent([1,1]).translate([0,0]).event(chart.select('g.stack_0')))
**option 2**
//Applied on timeslider,bitChart,bitChart2 to eliminate zoom and
//maintain pan
.zoomScale([1, 1])//dc.js
//And also
.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
bitChart.zoomScale([1, 1]);
//Nothing pans with
chart.focus(chart.xOriginalDomain())
**option 3**
bitChart.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
var svg = d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.call(d3.behavior.zoom().on("zoom", function () {
svg.attr("transform", "translate(" + d3.event.translate + ")" +"
scale(" + 1 + ")")
}))
//.append("g")
**option 4**
.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
var chartBody = chart.select('g.stack _0');
var path = chartBody.selectAll('path.line').data([extra_data]);
path.enter().append('path').attr({
class: 'line',
});
path.attr('transform', 'translate(0,50)');
**option 5**
bitChart.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
var zoom = d3.behavior.zoom()
.scaleExtent([1, 1])
chart.select('g.stack _0').call(zoom);
zoom.scale(1);
zoom.event(chart.select('g.stack _0'));
**option 6**
bitChart.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
svg.call(d3.behavior.zoom().scale(1));
**option 7**
var min_zoom = 1;
var max_zoom = 1;
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg");
var zoom = d3.behavior.zoom().scaleExtent([min_zoom, max_zoom])
bitChart.on('zoomed', function (chart, filter) {
svg.call(zoom);
My fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/dani2011/4dsjjdan/1/ was forked from https://jsfiddle.net/gordonwoodhull/272xrsat/9/.
When selecting span from the dropdown and clicking on the range chart,The range chart (timeSlider) acts strange on the fiddle, but behaves as expected when run it in my environment. Please note in this fiddle that bitChart2 pans the brush as expected.The resize of the brush when reaching the edge happens in my enviroment. bitChart still resizes the brush.
A partial solution:
To enable multi focus charts on a single range chart as in https://github.com/dc-js/dc.js/blob/master/web/examples/multi-focus.html written by Gordon Woodhull.Used the focus chart which worked properly in my code (bitChart2) as the main reference chart:
bitChart2.focusCharts = function (chartlist) {
if (!arguments.length) {
return this._focusCharts;
}
this._focusCharts = chartlist; // only needed to support the getter above
this.on('filtered', function (range_chart) {
if (!range_chart.filter()) {
dc.events.trigger(function () {
chartlist.forEach(function(focus_chart) {
focus_chart.x().domain(focus_chart.xOriginalDomain());
});
});
} else chartlist.forEach(function(focus_chart) {
if (!rangesEqual(range_chart.filter(), focus_chart.filter())) {
dc.events.trigger(function () {
focus_chart.focus(range_chart.filter());
});
}
});
});
return this;
};
bitChart2.focusCharts([bitChart]);
My second fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/dani2011/uzg48yk7/1/ was forked from https://jsfiddle.net/gordonwoodhull/272xrsat/9/.
1) When clicking on the range chart in the fiddle it does not function properly, but works in my environment.
2) The brush does not resize at the edges of the range chart in the fiddle as it does in my environment
3) It does show in the fiddle that the whole range chart is selected when panning/clicking on the lines in the focus charts and when clicking in the range chart
4) It does show in the fiddle that after selecting the brush span from the dropdown, panning the lines in the focus charts moves the brush properly on the range chart.
5) It does show in the fiddle that dragging the brush on the range chart is possible again in no span is selected from the dropdown
Still needs to solve:
1) When reaching the ends of the range chart (timeSlider) the brush resizes
solved by updating versions to be the same as the version of the external resources in the fiddle https://jsfiddle.net/gordonwoodhull/272xrsat/9/. Thank you Gordon!
2) Before selecting a scale from the dropdown:
a) When panning /translating the line of the focus charts(bitChart,bitChart2) the brush resizes
b) It is possible again to drag the brush on the range chart
Any help would be appreciated !

Add graph in dc.js tooltip

I'm building a number of graphs using crossfilter and dc.js. Among others, there is a row chart and an histogram (a bar chart).
What I am trying to do is to create a tooltip on the row chart which will show the histogram.
Looking at this SO-question I saw an example using d3-tip. I have made an attempt in this jsfiddle. However, I cannot see how to embed a div in the tooltip.
Any suggestion? (If using plain d3 is better, I'm ok with that.)
Snippet of code is:
function draw_row(div_id){ ...; return row_chart; }
function draw_hist(div_id){ ...; return bar_chart; }
var rate_chart = draw_row('#rate').title(function(){return'';});
dc.renderAll();
var tip = d3.tip()
.attr('class', 'd3-tip')
.offset([-10, 0])
.html(function () {
// What to put in here???
draw_hist('#distr').render();
return "<div id='distr'>Distribution<br></div>"
});
d3.selectAll("#rate g.row")
.call(tip)
.on('mouseover', tip.show)
.on('mouseout', tip.hide);
Fun project!
Yes, as you noticed, you're not going to be able to render the chart while you're in the .html() callback - that only returns static HTML, and I don't think you can give it an element instead.
So we'll have to find a place to render after the HTML has already been generated. Luckily, d3-tip doesn't try to handle mouse events or anything like that - the code which displays the tip is right there in the code you've posted:
.on('mouseover', tip.show)
.on('mouseout', tip.hide);
So we can wrap tip.show in a function of our own, and then render the chart into the tip once it's on the screen.
We have to watch out because mouseover will fire every time the mouse moves, and we probably don't want to replace the tip-chart until we hover over another bar. So we'll remember the id of the last bar we hovered:
var last_tip = null;
d3.selectAll("#rate g.row")
.call(tip)
.on('mouseover', function(d) {
if(d.key !== last_tip) {
tip.show(d);
draw_hist('#distr').render();
last_tip = d.key;
}
})
.on('mouseout', function(d) {
last_tip = null;
tip.hide(d);
});
Finally, d3-tip needs to know the size of the tip content in order to render in the right place. (If it accidentally renders on top of the element, this can cause horrible flickering when the mouse goes over the tip, registering mouseout on the element.)
So we'll just hard-code that, since we're hard-coding the chart size anyway. 20 extra pixels to fit the title:
.html(function (d) {
return "<div id='distr' style='min-width:300px; min-height: 320px'>Distribution<br></div>"
});
Looks pretty cool with the default translucent black style from d3-tip:

d3.v3 transitions happening instantly?

I've recently passed from d3.v2 to d3.v3, and am trying to understand the differences in the transition mechanisms.
In the code underneath, I'm trying to make a bar graph that, when drawn, has bars that increase in height via a transition. This code works without issue in d3.v2, but in v3, the transition seems to happen "instantly" (the height is immediately set to the end value).
graph.enter()//for each bucket
.append('g')
.attr('transform',function(d,i){ return 'translate('+(xBand(i))+')';})
.attr('width',xBand.rangeBand())
.each(function(data,index){//here we are working on the selection for a single bucket
var $this=d3.select(this); //this refers to the group selection
var currentY=0;
var rects=$this.selectAll('rect')
.data(data.values);
rects.enter()
.insert('rect')
.attr('group-id',me.groupId)
.attr('y',Hats.accessor('y'))
.attr('width',xBand.rangeBand())
.attr('fill',(function(elt){ return me.colors(me.groupId(elt));}));
rects.transition()
.duration(750)
.attr('height',(function(elt){
var h=_.compose(heightScale,me.values)(elt);
d3.select(this).attr('y',currentY);
currentY+=h;
return h;
}));
});
Try setting a starting height in your enter selection:
rects.enter()
.insert('rect')
.attr('group-id',me.groupId)
.attr('y',Hats.accessor('y'))
.attr('width',xBand.rangeBand())
.attr('fill',(function(elt){ return me.colors(me.groupId(elt));}))
.attr('height', 0);
rects.transition()
.duration(750)
.attr('height',(function(elt){
var h=_.compose(heightScale,me.values)(elt);
d3.select(this).attr('y',currentY);
currentY+=h;
return h;
}));
