Newbie question: How can one move the x-axis tick labels further from the x-axis? The snippet of code below produces this:
Whereas what I want is more like this:
From the question here:
d3.js: Align text labels between ticks on the axis
it seems that I need to select the text that contains these labels using select and then apply something like translate(0,-10) to them, but I can't figure out where this text "lives"/the syntax for performing such a selection. Sorry if this is simple; I am very new to D3 (and javascript). Can anyone help? Thanks in advance! Code follows.
<script>
var superscript = "⁰¹²³⁴⁵⁶⁷⁸⁹",
formatPower = function(d) { return (d + "").split("").map(function(c) { return superscript[c]; }).join("");\
};
var margin = {top: 20, right: 20, bottom: 100, left: 100},
width = 400,
height = 400;
var x = d3.scale.log()
.domain([1e1, 1e4])
.range([0, width])
.nice();
var xAxis = d3.svg.axis()
.scale(x)
.orient("bottom")
.tickValues([1e1, 1e2, 1e3, 1e4])
.ticks(0, function(d) { return 10 + formatPower(Math.round(Math.log(d) / Math.LN10)); });
var svg = d3.select("body").append("svg")
.attr("width", width + margin.left + margin.right)
.attr("height", height + margin.top + margin.bottom)
.append("g")
.attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");
svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "x axis")
.attr("transform", "translate(0," + height + ")")
.call(xAxis)
.append("text")
.attr("class", "label")
.attr("x", (width+margin.left)/2)
.attr("y", 60)
.style("text-anchor", "end")
.text("x-axis label");
</script>
