This example shows a single arrow-like pointer shape that can rotate in four directions—down, up, left, or right—selected from a dropdown menu. The shape is drawn as an SVG path using a hardcoded path string built from the `nonius` variable. The code uses D3 v3 to append the path to an SVG element and updates its `d` attribute on the dropdown’s `change` event. The pointer is centered via a `transform` translate and filled with a steel blue color.

Pointer

A red circle follows the mouse cursor across an SVG canvas, with its position updating in real time via React state. The `App` component listens for `onMouseMove` events on the SVG element, using `useState` to store the pointer coordinates and `useCallback` to handle the event efficiently. The circle is rendered with `cx` and `cy` attributes derived from the cursor's `clientX` and `clientY` values, creating a direct, responsive interaction between the pointer and the visual element.

Untitled

This example demonstrates how D3 v3 renders SVG marker shapes used as line endpoints. It defines four distinct path geometries—circle, square, arrow, and stub—and attaches each as both a marker-start and marker-end to a corresponding element in a group. The code uses `d3.scale.category10` for colors, builds markers via SVG `<defs>`, and positions everything within a fixed margin layout. The visible result is a set of colored, marker-capped paths across the canvas, though the intended connecting lines are commented out.

Arrow Mouse Follower

An arrow follows the mouse cursor across the full viewport, rendered as an SVG path with a red marker arrowhead and thick stroke. The example demonstrates unidirectional data flow: a mousemove event triggers a state update that redraws the path. It uses D3 v7’s selection joins and `setState`/`render` pattern to update the SVG, with the path positioned relative to the cursor’s x and y coordinates.

Arrow with Delay

A red arrow with a marker follows the mouse pointer, leaving a thin white trail behind it as the user moves across the screen. The visualization demonstrates unidirectional data flow: a `mousemove` event updates the state, which triggers a re-render of an SVG path using D3 v7. The path is drawn with a quadratic Bézier curve (`T` command) between offset coordinates, with its endpoint styled by an SVG marker definition. The code updates the `d` attribute on each render to reflect the latest cursor position.

Shapes

This example demonstrates basic SVG shapes and dynamic styling interactions. A light blue rectangle serves as a canvas containing a circle, ellipse, text label, and line. Using D3 v6 selection methods, hovering over the circle turns it yellow, clicking the circle turns it red, and clicking the line thickens it. Clicking anywhere on the SVG updates the text element to display the cursor’s coordinates via `d3.pointer`. The page also mixes plain HTML headings and paragraphs with CSS rules for color and font styling.

D3 path-I

This example showcases a single, closed curved shape rendered as a stroked SVG path, creating a geometric knot-like form that stands alone on a blank white canvas. The path’s coordinates are provided as a static string in the `d` attribute, defining the outline with a smooth cubic Bézier curve that draws the shape twice to connect its interior and exterior contours. Built with D3 v6 inside a React-free HTML page, the code selects the `body` element, appends an SVG container of 960 by 500 pixels, and uses `d3.select` and `append` to add the path. The stroke is colored blue with a width of 2 pixels, and the fill is explicitly set to none, leaving only the outline visible.

Fork of Mouse Follower

A red arrow with a white fill follows the mouse cursor across a full-window SVG canvas. The arrowhead is defined in a marker with a custom path, and the arrow's curved path is calculated from the cursor's x- and y-coordinates. The example demonstrates unidirectional data flow using the d3.select and .join methods, where mousemove events trigger setState to update the state, and a new path attribute is rendered each time. It uses d3.v7 from unpkg and renders exclusively as SVG.

Untitled

This example draws a single horizontal curved path on an SVG canvas using D3 v5’s `d3.linkHorizontal` generator. The path connects a fixed source point at (20, 10) to a target point at (280, 100), with a dark slate blue stroke and no fill. The code defines data with explicit source and target coordinates, then appends a `<path>` element to an empty `<svg>` selected via `d3.select`. The accompanying files include CSV datasets with clinical system requirements and concept relationships, but the visualization itself only renders the static link and does not use those files.
