Answer 1

The solution involves setting the 'fixed' node property to true on dragstart.

var drag = force.drag()
    .on("dragstart", dragstart);

var node = vis.selectAll("g.node").data(data.nodes).enter().append(
    "svg:g").attr("class", "node").call(drag);

function dragstart(d) {
  d.fixed = true;
}

See here: Sticky Force Layout

Documentation: force.drag()

If you want dragged nodes to remain fixed after dragging, set the fixed attribute to true on dragstart, as in the sticky force layout example.
