Transform Transitions

D3 2.5.0 supports matrix decomposition for animating 2D transforms. Any SVG transform attribute is decomposed into a canonical representation of translate, rotate, scale and skew. This allows two arbitrary transforms of different types to be transitioned smoothly—say from a simple translate to a scale plus rotate. These features are supported automatically by your browser for CSS3 transitions, but now you can have them in JavaScript for SVG, too!
