I'm trying to drag a group by using one of it's children as a handle. Simply, what i'm trying to do is, when a groups child is dragged:
When child dragged, group does not move as expected. It moves less than the dragged distance, and it begins to jump here and there.
What am I doing wrong here?
Edit:

I'm trying to drag the whole group by using one or more of it's children as dragging handles.

This is an old question, but not really answered. I had exactly the same problem and wanted to drag the group by only one child (not all child elements of the <g>).
The problem is, that the d3.event.dx/y is calculated relatively to the position of the <g>. And as soon as the <g> is moved by .attr(“transform”, “translate(x, y)”), the d3.event.dx/dy is adjusted to the new (smaller) value. This results in a jerky movement with approx. the half of the speed of the cursor. I found two possible solutions for this:
First (finally I ended up with this approach):
Append the drag handle rect directly to the svg and not to the <g>. So it is positioned relatively to the <svg> and not to the <g>. Then move both (the <rect> and the <g>) within the on drag function.
var svg = d3.select("svg");
var group = svg
.append("g").attr("id", "group")
.attr("transform", "translate(0, 0)");
group
.append("rect")
.attr("x", 0)
.attr("y", 0)
.attr("width", 100)
.attr("height", 100)
.style("fill", "green")
.style("opacity", 0.4);
group
.append("text")
.attr("x", 10)
.attr("y", 5)
.attr("dominant-baseline", "hanging")
.text("drag me");
handle = svg
.append("rect")
.data([{
// Position of the rectangle
x: 0,
y: 0
}])
.attr("class", "draghandle")
.attr("x", 0)
.attr("y", 0)
.attr("width", 100)
.attr("height", 20)
.style("fill", "blue")
.style("opacity", 0.4)
.attr("cursor", "move")
.call(d3.drag().on("drag", function (d) {
console.log("yep");
d.x += d3.event.dx;
d.y += d3.event.dy;
// Move handle rect
d3.select(this)
.attr("x", function (d) {
return d.x;
})
.attr("y", function (d) {
return d.y;
});
// Move Group
d3.select("#group").attr("transform", "translate(" + [d.x, d.y] + ")");
}));<body>
<svg width="400" height="400"></svg>
<script src="https://d3js.org/d3.v4.min.js"></script>
</body>Second:
Check on which element the cursor was during the drag event with d3.event.sourceEvent.path[0] and run the drag function only if the handle <rect> was clicked. With this approach, all elements can be grouped within one <g> (no need for an additional <rect> outside the group). The downside of this method is, that the drag is also executed, if the cursor is moved over the drag handle with mouse down.
var svg = d3.select("svg");
var group = svg
.append("g")
.data([{
// Position of the rectangle
x: 0,
y: 0
}])
.attr("id", "group")
.attr("transform", function (d) {
return "translate(" + d.x + ", " + d.y + ")"
})
.call(d3.drag().on("drag", function (d) {
if (d3.event.sourceEvent.target.classList.value === "draghandle") {
console.log("yep");
d.x += d3.event.dx;
d.y += d3.event.dy;
d3.select(this).attr("transform", function (d) {
return "translate(" + [d.x, d.y] + ")"
})
} else {
console.log("nope");
return;
}
}));
