As shown in the diagram, I am trying to increase the gap between last nodes on either side of the tree layout as they are overlapping

Is there any way to do it in D3?

Better approach would be to use separation() method. Please look at documentation for details, in principle with that method you define minimum distance between nodes, but in your case you need to restrict making gapos only to some nodes, thats why there is condition inside separation())

var tree = d3.layout.tree()
    .separation(function(a, b) { return ((a.parent == root) && (b.parent == root)) ? 3 : 1; })
    .size([height, width - 160]);

On the following pictures is the tree without the line of code with call to separation(): (I added nodes AA and ZZ to my previous example, and also BB and CC, but these nodes display OK atleast for this case)

enter image description here

... and here with that line:

enter image description here

here and here

Just for laughs, I further modified the line from " ? 3 : 1; })" to " ? 5 : .6; })", and I got:

  • hi Vivid,after adding the above code ,second level nodes are not getting re-arranged after collapsing them,first level childs are getting re-arranged as usually..any suggestions for this? – javalearner Dec 27 '13 at 10:57
  • I am not sure, I have to take a look at your exact code. Maybe you put another question? Or @Manoj caould help? – VividD Dec 27 '13 at 11:16
  • hi VividD ,can you let us know ,how to make childrens invisible.so that i will follow your previous approach – javalearner Dec 27 '13 at 12:44
  • updated the latest tree layout where i am geting extra child on right side with a circle – javalearner Dec 27 '13 at 12:51
  • Similar as you did for dashed links. I would create two new classes and styles, node_invisible, and link_invisible, both with "display: none", which would mean invisible. Than in the area of code that you changed for dashed lines, there should be some modification that examines if the link should be invisible, and if yes, assign its class to link_invisible. The same for nodes. One problem is how to "mark"nodes that should be invisible. Maybe with some special string. Anyway, this method is good as a practice, but it looks to me that the second method with "separation()" is the way to go. – VividD Dec 27 '13 at 13:18
  • Hi vividD,i have posted the code which is used for tree layout.child nodes are not getting aligned together when collapsed after using separate method.could you plz help me out of this – javalearner Dec 30 '13 at 07:16
  • Hi, javalearner, can you put somewhere file network.json, so that I can see the file structure, try your code, etc....? – VividD Dec 30 '13 at 07:25

If you add a child to the nodes that you need to move, and than make that child and its correspondent link invisible, that you will have the gap you need. However, I admit this solution is a little quick and dirty.

The problem here that position of the nodes are computed by so-called Reingold-Tilford algorithm automatically within d3.js, and it requires a lot of knowledge to modify the algorithm internally, or use some other algorithm. But some solutions with twaeaking like I described are possible.

  • I am getting error `Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'x0' of undefined` for line `root.x0 = viewerHeight / 2;`. `root` is `root = treeData;` Not sure what will be treeData here. Can you please help why I am getting this error on above line? – user588324 Feb 21 '14 at 20:14
