selection.classed(name, value);
  • name- The name of the CSS class to be added or removed.
  • value- A boolean value that determines whether to add (true) or remove (false) the class.

Example

In this example, the .classed() method is used to dynamically add and remove the class highlight from the selected element, showcasing its utility in creating interactive and dynamic visualizations:

// Select an element with the id "myElement"
var myElement = d3.select('#myElement');
// Add a class called "highlight" to the selected element
myElement.classed('highlight', true);
// Remove the class "highlight" after a delay
setTimeout(function () {
myElement.classed('highlight', false);
}, 2000);
