How to make Vertical corners on a Bar Chart? [duplicate]

Answer 1

You cannot specify which corners you want to make round in SVG: rx will affect all 4 corners.

The only solution is using a path for simulating a rectangle. This function returns a path with top corners round:

function rectangle(x, y, width, height, radius){
    return "M" + (x + radius) + "," + y + "h" + (width - 2*radius) 
    + "a" + radius + "," + radius + " 0 0 1 " + radius + "," + radius + "v" + 
    (height - 2*radius) + "v" + radius + "h" + -radius + "h" + 
    (2*radius - width) + "h" + -radius + "v" + -radius + "v" + 
    (2*radius - height) + "a" + radius + "," + radius + " 0 0 1 " 
    + radius + "," + -radius + "z";
};

Here is a demo snippet showing a "bar chart" with those paths, with a radius (the rx equivalent here) of 5px:

function rectangle(x, y, width, height, radius){
	return "M" + (x + radius) + "," + y + "h" + (width - 2*radius) + "a" + radius + "," + radius + " 0 0 1 " + radius + "," + radius + "v" + (height - 2*radius) + "v" + radius + "h" + -radius + "h" + (2*radius - width) + "h" + -radius + "v" + -radius + "v" + (2*radius - height) + "a" + radius + "," + radius + " 0 0 1 " + radius + "," + -radius + "z";
};

var data = [40, 50, 30, 40, 90, 54, 20, 35, 60, 42];

var svg = d3.select("body")
	.append("svg")
	.attr("width", 400)
	.attr("height", 120);
	
var rects = svg.selectAll(".paths").data(data).enter().append("path");
rects.attr("d", function(d,i){ return rectangle(10+40*i,100-d,20,d,5)});

var texts = svg.selectAll(".text").data("ABCDEFGHIJ".split("")).enter().append("text").attr("y",114).attr("x", function(d,i){return 16+40*i}).text(function(d){return d});

path {
  fill:teal;
}

text {
  fill:darkslategray;
  font-size: 12px;
}

PS: I didn't write that function, it was based on these answers by M. Bostock and R. Longson.
