D3.js interpolateTransformSvg() Function

The interpolateTransformSvg() function in D3.js is used to return the interpolator function between two given SVG transforms. Then by changing the value of k in returned function different transform property can be set.

Syntax:

 interpolateTransformSvg(a, b);

Parameters: This function accepts two parameters as mentioned above and described below:

  • a: It is the transform property of the SVG.
  • b: It is the transform property of the SVG.

Returns: It returns the interpolator function.

Below given are a few examples of the above function.

Example 1:

          src = "https://d3js.org/d3.v4.min.js">
  </script>
  <script>
    console.log(d3.interpolateTransformSvg(
  "skewX(30)",
  "skewX(10) translate(10, 0)"
)(1))
    console.log(d3.interpolateTransformSvg(
  "skewX(30)",
  "skewX(10) translate(10, 0)"
)(0.5))
    console.log(d3.interpolateTransformSvg(
  "skewX(30)",
  "skewX(10) translate(10, 0)"
)(0.8))
    console.log(d3.interpolateTransformSvg(
  "skewX(30)",
  "skewX(10) translate(10, 0)"
)(2))
 </script>
</body>
</html>

  }
  btn.addEventListener("click", func);
