This interactive force-directed network diagram displays the relationships between named characters, with arrows indicating direction and thickness conveying connection strength. Clicking a node highlights it by enlarging its circle and changing its label’s color, size, and position; double-clicking resets the node to its default styling. Built with D3.js 3.5.17, it uses `d3.layout.force` for physics-based simulation, SVG elements for rendering, and transitions on `attr` and `style` properties to animate the highlight and reset effects. The input data is loaded from a CSV file containing source, target, and value columns for each edge.

AI-generated description

This is a follow-on graph to the Basic Directional Force Layout Diagram and builds on it by allowing highlighting of individual nodes by clicking on them. These then remain highlighted untill you double click on them.

Directional Force Layout Diagram with node colouring

This interactive graph displays a directional force layout diagram, visualizing the relationships between characters as node connections. The example builds on the basic and highlighting versions by coloring each circular node distinctly using a categorical color scale, while links have varying opacity based on their weight values from the `force.csv` data source. The D3.js code uses the `d3.layout.force` API to simulate the physics, animating the SVG paths and nodes. Users can click to enlarge nodes and text, or double-click to restore them.

Basic Directional Force Layout Diagram

This basic directional force layout diagram visualizes a directed graph of named relationships with weighted edges. It uses D3.js with the `d3.layout.force` API to simulate a physics-based layout where nodes repel and links pull toward each other. Arrowheads are added via SVG markers, and each link is drawn as a curved path that connects source and target nodes. The graph reads data from a local CSV file containing source, target, and value triples.

Directional Force Layout Diagram with varying link opacity

This example shows a force-directed network graph of 28 nodes and 29 directed links, where each link’s opacity encodes the numeric value from `force.csv`. Thicker, more opaque edges (e.g., value 2.0 between Eveie and Harry) indicate stronger connections, while fainter edges (e.g., 0.1 between Harry and Eveie) represent weaker ties. The graph uses `d3.layout.force` for the physics simulation and animates node positions in an SVG via a `tick` handler that draws curved paths with arrowheads. Interactivity is limited to click and double-click events, which enlarge and highlight individual nodes and their labels. The code derives opacity classes from a linear scale mapping link values to 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100% opacity.

Node Linked Diagram with Force Directed Layout

This example displays a node-link diagram using a force-directed layout, visualizing connections from the soc-firm-hi-tech network data repository. It renders purple circular nodes and black links in SVG with animation, where hovering enlarges a node and dragging repositions it. The code builds the simulation with `d3.forceSimulation`, applying `d3.forceManyBody` for repulsion, `d3.forceCenter` for centering, and `d3.forceLink` for edges, updating positions via a ticked handler.

D3 Node-link Diagram With Force-directed Layout

This interactive D3 node-link diagram visualizes a force-directed network layout using data from the SOC-FIRM-HI-TECH repository. It shows the connections between nodes, with link thickness proportional to edge weight and node color assigned by ID via `d3.scaleOrdinal` and `d3.schemeCategory10`. The graph is rendered as an animated SVG using `d3.forceSimulation` with link, many-body charge, and center forces, allowing drag interactions. Hovering over a circle reveals a tooltip with the node ID, powered by D3 transitions and mouse events.

(d3v4) Force Layout w highlights

This example shows a force-directed network graph of character interactions from *Les Misérables*, rendered as SVG nodes and links. Hovering over a node or link highlights its connections by fading unrelated elements, while a tooltip displays names, groups, and link strength. Dragging nodes repositions them, and double-clicking releases them from the fixed position. The visualization uses d3.forceSimulation with link, charge, and center forces, plus d3.drag for interaction and d3.schemeSet3 for coloring nodes by group.

Force-directed Layout

This example shows a force-directed network layout of a graph dataset from the Network Data Repository. Nodes appear as orange circles, with gray links connecting them; hovering over a node displays its ID in a tooltip. The visualization uses D3.js v6 with `d3.forceSimulation`, `d3.forceLink`, and `d3.forceManyBody` to compute node positions, while `d3.drag` enables interactive node repositioning. Data is loaded from a CSV file, and the SVG rendering updates continuously during simulation ticks, with node colors assigned via `d3.scaleOrdinal`.

How to D3 Force Directed Layout Graph

This example demonstrates a force-directed layout graph using D3.js (v5). Nodes and links are rendered as SVG elements, with the graph's structure implied by the bundled JavaScript. The code uses D3’s built-in force simulation (d3.forceSimulation) to position the connected nodes naturally, while the stylesheet defines the visual appearance of the nodes as grey circles and the links as grey lines. The data is not explicitly shown, but the layout emerges from the simulated forces between connected nodes.
