The first four recipes in this chapter are focused on single transition controls in D3, including custom easing and tweening functions. However, sometimes, regardless of how much easing or tweening you do, a single transition is just not enough; for instance, you would want to simulate teleporting a div
element by first squeezing the div
element into a beam, then passing the beam to a different position on the web page, and finally restoring the div
to its original size. In this recipe, we will see exactly how this type of transition can be achieved using transition chaining.
