Menu
I have a graph for which I need a reference line everywhere the mouse-cursor is inside this graph. And this reference line will follow the mouse movements inside the graph.
But this doesn't seems to work fine. It works only on the axis and the ticks (.axis lines) of the axis. On debugging, I found that mouse event works fine when applied over SVG but not on the group, why so ?
Here is my code :
<html>
<head>
<script src="jquery.js">
</script>
<script src="d3.v2.js">
</script>
<script src="retest.js">
</script>
<style type="text/css">
.g_main {
cursor:pointer;
}
.axis path, .axis line {
stroke: #DBDBDB;
/*shape-rendering: crispEdges;
*/
}
.y g:first-child text {
display:none;
}
.y g:first-child line {
stroke: #989898 ;
stroke-width: 2.5px;
}
/*.x g:first-child line {
stroke: black ;
stroke-width: 2.5px;
}
*/
.y path {
stroke: #989898 ;
stroke-width: 2.5px;
}
</style>
</head>

The g element is just an empty container which cannot capture click events (see documentation for pointer-events property for details).
However, mouse events do bubble up to it. Hence, the effect you desire can be achieved by first making sure that the g receives all pointer events:
.g_main {
// ..
pointer-events: all;
}
And then appending an invisible rectangle to it as a place to hover over:
viz.on("mousemove", function () {
cx = d3.mouse(this)[0];
cy = d3.mouse(this)[1];
redrawline(cx, cy);
})
.on("mouseover", function () {
d3.selectAll('.line_over').style("display", "block");
})
.on("mouseout", function () {
d3.selectAll('.line_over').style("display", "none");
})
.append('rect')
.attr('class', 'click-capture')
.style('visibility', 'hidden')
.attr('x', 0)
.attr('y', 0)
.attr('width', width)
.attr('height', height);
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/H3W3k/
As for why they work when applied to the svg element (from the docs):
Note that the ‘svg’ element is not a graphics element, and in a Conforming SVG Stand-Alone File a rootmost ‘svg’ element will never be the target of pointer events, though events can bubble to this element. If a pointer event does not result in a positive hit-test on a graphics element, then it should evoke any user-agent-specific window behavior, such as a presenting a context menu or controls to allow zooming and panning of an SVG document fragment.
