This example demonstrates interactive map-based drawing with dynamically animated SVG patterns. Users draw polygons or rectangles on a Leaflet map, selecting between none, diagonalHatch, or diagonalHash pattern fills via a dropdown control. The D3.js library animates the selected patterns—diagonalHatch drops and diagonalHash spins—while a separate toggle applies a blur filter to reveal hardware acceleration differences across browsers. Rendering uses Leaflet’s SVG overlay pane, with controls built through Leaflet’s L.Control extension API.

AI-generated description

Animated SVG pattern on Leaflet map (zoom available). Animation made with help of D3.js. Blur filter added for revealing level of hardware acceleration in different browsers. As we can see perfomance degradation quite unsignificant. Works great in Firefox and webkit based browsers.

Dynamic tile masking and more

This example demonstrates interactive masking of OpenStreetMap tiles over a stamen.com toner base map, controlled by user-drawn polygons. Using Leaflet’s draw control, users create shapes that act as SVG masks, revealing or hiding the underlying OSM tile layer. The visualization also applies SVG filters, such as grayscale, hue rotation, and sepia, to the map tiles, and offers a selection of hatch patterns for the mask fills. The code integrates D3.js (v3) for projecting GeoJSON geometries into Leaflet’s coordinate system and manipulates the SVG `defs` and mask elements directly.

Dynamic tile clipping and more

This example demonstrates interactive map manipulation on a Leaflet map centered on Moscow. Users can draw polygons to dynamically clip OpenStreetMap tiles layered over a Stamen toner base map. The code uses D3.js to project drawn GeoJSON geometries via `d3.geo.path` and `d3.geo.transform`, applying the resulting path as an SVG `clipPath` to reveal the OSM overlay only within the drawn shapes. Additional SVG filters and patterns allow real-time effects like grayscale, hue rotation, and hatching on the map layers.

Lichen.js Pattern Showcase

This block showcases the variety of pattern-generating methods available in Lichen.js, a utility for extending D3. Rendered as animated SVG, the display cycles through multiple pattern types, including chevron arcs, plaids, and stripes, with some patterns' parameters limited by the UI. The chevronArc.js module demonstrates the library's low-level path construction, using custom arc calculations to draw notched chevron shapes based on inner/outer radii, start/end angles, and indent values. The visualization highlights the flexibility of the library while acknowledging its interface constraints.

nyc-d3-live-code

This example demonstrates interactive SVG animations built with d3.v3. A row of circles oscillates vertically, first transitioning to a flat line, then responding to mouseover events with animated shifts in amplitude. A recursive rectangle-drawing function adds shrinking squares, and hovering over a rect triggers a d3.transition that randomly repositions it and changes its fill color. The sketch uses d3.select, d3.range, .transition(), and event listeners on SVG shapes.

Circular Geometric Patterns

This animated example generates circular geometric patterns by placing points along a circle and drawing both the connecting polygon and overlapping circles around each point. As the animation runs, a continuously increasing skip factor and node count alter the points’ positions, producing evolving abstract shapes. The visualization uses React for state management and rendering, with D3’s `line` and `curveLinearClosed` to create the polygon path, while each circle’s radius is calculated from the distance between the first two points. The scene is rendered as SVG, with a blue semi-transparent outline tracing the polygon and gray strokes for the circles.

Circular Geometric Patterns

This interactive visualization cycles through circular geometric patterns, drawing a series of overlapping circles and a connecting polyline at the center of an SVG canvas. The pattern evolves automatically as a timer increments both the number of nodes and a "skip factor" that determines the angular spacing between points. Built with React and D3 v5, it uses `d3.range`, `d3.line`, and `d3.curveLinearClosed` to generate points along a circle and construct the path, while React's `useState` and `useEffect` drive the animation loop.

General Update Pattern, tutoriel interactif

This interactive tutorial demonstrates D3 v4's general update pattern, showing how data changes are reconciled with existing SVG elements step by step. As users navigate through code lines with keyboard arrows, the visualization highlights which circles are selected for updating, entering, or exiting the scene. The example uses `selectAll`, `.data()`, `.enter()`, `.append()`, and `.exit()` to manage lifecycle transitions, with colors indicating fill states. It presents randomly drawn letters between A and H as data points, providing a concrete walkthrough of selection merging and DOM state.

pattern

A fruit bowl of circles animates as apples, lemons, and peaches are added, removed, or changed over time. This example uses D3 v5’s `select` and `scaleOrdinal` for colors and radii, with a custom transition to animate circle sizes and positions. The SVG rendering supports the dynamic updates triggered by timed `setTimeout` events, demonstrating data-driven state changes in a declarative D3 workflow.
