Curved line on d3 force directed tree

Question

New to d3 and trying to develop a force directed tree into which we can plug varioss dataset. I\'ve managed to get the basic idea up and running but would like to make the l

Answer 1

This also worked for me.

First define a path:

var path = vis.selectAll("path")
   .data(force.links());

path.enter().insert("svg:path")
   .attr("class", "link")
   .style("stroke", "#ccc");

Then define the curve, as Bob Haslett says and in the Mobile Patent Suits example:

path.attr("d", function(d) {
    var dx = d.target.x - d.source.x,
        dy = d.target.y - d.source.y,
        dr = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
    return "M" + d.source.x + "," + d.source.y + "A" + dr + "," + dr + " 0 0,1 " + d.target.x + "," + d.target.y;
});

Answer 2

Der, worked it out.

change

.enter().append("line")

to

.enter().append("path")

then change

link.attr("x1", function(d) { return d.source.x; })
  .attr("y1", function(d) { return d.source.y; })
  .attr("x2", function(d) { return d.target.x; })
  .attr("y2", function(d) { return d.target.y; });

to

link.attr("d", function(d) {
var dx = d.target.x - d.source.x,
    dy = d.target.y - d.source.y,
    dr = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
return "M" + d.source.x + "," + d.source.y + "A" + dr + "," + dr + " 0 0,1 " + d.target.x + "," + d.target.y;
});

Hope that help anyone stuck as I was
