A circular gauge displays a background arc and an orange foreground arc representing a value, which updates to a new random angle every few seconds. The animation uses a custom `transition.attrTween` on the `d` attribute, interpolating the endAngle in data space via `d3.interpolate`. The arc path is computed with `d3.arc`, and the transition duration is set to 100,000 milliseconds, creating a smooth, continuous rotation.

AI-generated description

A commented example of tweening arcs; see Pie Chart Update, II and Arc Tween (Clock) for older examples. (There’s also The Amazing Pie and Donut Transitions if you want to get fancy.) See the API reference for transition.attrTween and my tutorial Working with Transitions for more.

Arc Tween

A donut chart demonstrates arc transitions using D3 v4. An orange foreground arc repeatedly animates to a new random end angle, while a static gray background arc represents the full circle. The code uses `transition.attrTween` with a closure that interpolates between the current and target end angles via `d3.interpolate`, updating the bound datum before recomputing the SVG path with `d3.arc`. Rendering is SVG, with transitions triggered every 1.5 seconds by `d3.interval`.

arc tween example

An animated arc chart demonstrates pie-segment transitions using D3 v4’s `transition.attrTween`. A white foreground arc rotates to a new random angle every few seconds, while a segmented, multicolored ring around it sequentially fills or empties its sections. The code defines arc generators via `d3.arc`, binds data from a fixed array, and computes path interpolations between angles using `d3.interpolate`. SVG elements render the background ring and active arcs, with transitions triggered by `d3.interval`.

animated arc

This example animates a set of orange arc segments that expand and fade out over time, creating a wave-like effect. The visualization uses SVG paths generated by the `d3.arc` generator, with a `clipPath` (a 200×200 rectangle) to constrain the arcs' visibility. A single transition, invoked via `transition.attrTween`, interpolates each arc's inner and outer radii from 0 to 300, while `style("opacity", 0)` fades them out. The animation runs over 4 seconds with staggered delays of 200 milliseconds per arc, using `d3.easeLinear`. Ten arcs are created from an array of empty objects, and the code relies on D3 v4.

Animated Arcs

Four concentric animated arcs rotate continuously around a central point, each with a distinct color and its own random start and end angles. The arcs periodically change their sweep length and position, creating a dynamic, looping visual rhythm. Built with D3 v4, the example uses SVG paths and `d3.interval` to trigger transitions, while `transition.attrTween` and `d3.interpolate` smoothly animate each arc’s angles. The code generates random data for four arcs with varying radii and colors, drawing them with the `d3.arc` shape generator.

Arc Clock

Three ring-like arcs display the current hour, minute, and second, with each arc filling proportionally to its unit and updating every second. A label beneath each arc shows the numeric value and unit letter. Built with D3 v3, the visualization uses SVG paths and `d3.svg.arc` for geometry, while `transition.attrTween` and an elastic easing animate the arc changes. The `update` function redraws the clock using `Date` methods like `getHours`, `getMinutes`, and `getSeconds`.

D3 spinner

This example shows a minimalist loading spinner rendered as a single animated arc that rotates continuously around a circular track on a pale green background. The animation uses D3 transitions with a 20-second duration, where `transition.attrTween` interpolates the arc’s `endAngle` from 0 to 2π, and an `on("end")` callback restarts the spin indefinitely. The code builds the shape with `d3.arc()`, setting outer and inner radii relative to the container size, and positions it via an SVG `<g>` transform.

pie chart transition example

This example shows a single, animated pie chart where the foreground arc transitions to a new random angle every 1.5 seconds, with the background arc remaining fixed at 100%. Built with D3 v5, it renders two SVG path arcs using a custom `d3.arc` generator with bound inner and outer radii. The animation is driven by `d3.interval` and `transition.attrTween`, which interpolates the `endAngle` value in data space before computing the new path string, ensuring smooth angular transitions.

Untitled

This visualization displays two arc-shaped bars representing values from a CSV file, with each bar’s arc length proportional to its value. The arcs use a green color scale and animate their growth when clicked, triggering a random value update. Built with React and D3.js, the code loads data via `d3.csv`, constructs arcs using `d3.svg.arc`, and animates transitions with `transition.attrTween`. Labels appear above each arc, and clicking anywhere on the SVG starts the simulation.
