Question:
When checking out the Brush Snapping function hosted on bl.ocks.org, I was confused by this block of code:
var gBrush = svg.append("g")
.attr("class", "brush")
.call(brush)
.call(brush.event);
To be clear, I understand what I'm doing .call(brush.event), but I don't understand why it is in this particular block of code. I see that the same call is being made in the brushended event handler, but why do the transitions in the brushend event depend on the call copied above?
Previous research:
I checked the docs API which says the following, but I have to admit that I really don't understand this explanation.
If the selection is a transition, logs the appropriate teens so that the brush sends out events during the transition
, nitty gritty brush.event?
