I am struggling to wrap long text in a d3 collapsible tree. I used the code in this answer and it seems to be working fine as long as the text gets split into 2 lines but something weird is happening when the text gets split into more than 2 lines.
As you can see in the image below, the third line is weirdly spaced. When I inspect the text element the dy property seems to be fine (0 for line1, 1 for line2 and 2 for line3) so I am not able to figure out what's wrong.
I am using .call(wrap, 250);
when calling the function, if that's helpful.
Here's the wrap
function that I am using from the linked answer above.
function wrap(text, width) {
text.each(function () {
var text = d3.select(this),
words = text.text().split(/\s+/).reverse(),
word,
line = [],
lineNumber = 0,
lineHeight = 1, // ems
x = text.attr("x"),
y = text.attr("y"),
dy = 0,
tspan = text.text(null)
.append("tspan")
.attr("x", x)
.attr("y", y)
.attr("dy", dy + "em");
while (word = words.pop()) {
line.push(word);
tspan.text(line.join(" "));
if (tspan.node().getComputedTextLength() > width) {
line.pop();
tspan.text(line.join(" "));
line = [word];
tspan = text.append("tspan")
.attr("x", x)
.attr("y", y)
.attr("dy", ++lineNumber * lineHeight + dy + "em")
.text(word);
}
}
});
}
