D3.js transform.invert() Function

The transform.invert() function in D3.js is used to get the inverse transformation of the specified point which is a two-element array of numbers [x, y]. The returned point is equal to [(x – tx) / k, (y – ty) / k].

Syntax:

transform.invert( point )

Parameters: This function accepts the following parameter as mentioned above and described below:

  • x: This parameter is the specified point which is a two-element array of numbers [x, y].

Return Value: This function returns the transformed zoom behavior.

Below programs illustrate the transform.invert() function in D3.js.
