D3

d3-ease ​

Examples · Easing is a method of distorting time to control apparent motion in animation. It is most commonly used for slow-in, slow-out. By easing time, animated transitions are smoother and exhibit more plausible motion.

The easing types in this module implement the ease method which takes a normalized time t and returns the corresponding “eased” time tʹ. Both the normalized time and the eased time are typically in the range [0,1], where 0 represents the start of the animation and 1 represents the end; some easing types, such as easeElastic, may return eased times slightly outside this range. A good easing type should return 0 if t = 0 and 1 if t = 1.

These easing types are largely based on work by Robert Penner.

ease(t) ​

Given the specified normalized time t, typically in the range [0,1], returns the “eased” time tʹ, also typically in [0,1]. 0 represents the start of the animation and 1 represents the end. A good implementation returns 0 if t = 0 and 1 if t = 1. For example, to apply easeCubic easing:

js
const te = d3.easeCubic(t);

To apply custom elastic easing, create your easing function before the animation starts:

js
const ease = d3.easeElastic.period(0.4);

Then during the animation, apply the easing function:

js
const te = ease(t);
