Is it possible to do the chart or visualization as SVG in Inkscape and then let d3.js update it with correct data dynamically? Like drawing bars and changing digits according to some JSON.
I am not yet started with d3.js, and I am afraid that it can only produce SVG itself and won't be able to handle complex drawings.
Here is tutorial for using Inkscape with d3.js - http://christopheviau.com/d3_tutorial/d3_inkscape/

Our team is working on creating an online collage.
[https://jsfiddle.net/Lfz1bp7r/3/]
Characteristically, the collage should be under the mask of the PNG file. At this stage we are trying different libraries. Attention on fabricJS. The collage scheme is implemented using SVG paths. The first problem was tracking mouse events in SVG pathways. Implemented manually. The main problem is to add a new picture, which should be above the collage but below the mask. Manipulations with globalCompositeOperation do not help. There are no layers in the fabricJS.
So the question is - will the fabricJS allow you to implement the addition of a new picture on top of the collage, but under the PNG mask? It's possible?
Thank you very much in advance!
FabricJS includes two ways to draw on top of the canvas above the standard object and controls layers. You can set an overlayImage, and you can use the after:render event to run additional draw commands on the canvas context. See the Bounding Rectangle demo for a simple example of how to do this.
See How Fabric Canvas Layering Works.
I need to style nodes with SVG images but cannot make it work. I am using ImageNodeStyle and passing an SVG image to the constructor. However, applying this style to nodes has no effect. I tried using bitmap images and they work fine.
How do I enable SVG image support for node styling?
yFiles for JavaFX uses JavaFX as the rendering engine and JavaFX unfortunately does not directly support SVG images. You need to convert the SVG image into an image that JavaFX understands and then you will be able to use it with ImageNodeStyle.
Using WebViews would be another option, however this is a very heavyweight solution that does not scale very well for many SVGs. You can surely use for rendering a background SVG, but I would not use hundreds of instances to show simple SVG graphics for the visualization of nodes.
Take a look at this answer to a related SVG/JavaFX question: it proposes a solution to the generic problem, which should also work for this specific issue.
I am looking for a tool to draw the SVG diagram and I want to display the same in a webpage.
There are lot of tools to create SVG diagram, but I am looking for the one to add some extra fields to each shape.
OK first I will explain my requirement clear. When we create a rectangle using any SVG tool, it will create a SVG element with rect element, in my case I would like to differentiate two devices "device type-1" and "device type-2" (using CSS in my web application) but their shape is rectangle.
So, I have to add some additional information for each rectangle in the drawing tool, so that using Javascript I could understand the type of device, based on the device type I could apply different CSS for each rectangle.
How to do this? Any drawing tools support this kind of feature?
You could use http://svg-edit.googlecode.com/svn/branches/2.6/editor/svg-editor.html and define IDs that you reference later on in JavaScript
One approach would be to us Adobe Illustrator to design you elements and Raphael JS to display and animate said elements. There are some differences in the way illustrator draws vector graphics and the way SVG does so the general consensus is to keep you graphics relatively simple. There are several guides out there, but this one looks particuallry good:

Can I rotate in a 3dish way a group tag in an SVG file?
Is there any need for an external JS library? I'd be glad to get a link somewhere.
Apparently 3d support isn't here yet so you have to make it look like there is three dimensions.
Have a look at the following links, they explain in detail how to use SVG to give a 3d effect.
rotating cube - wireframe (looks like 3d with controls to move it)
3d animation - advanced animation in 3d
Is there a way to convert lat/lon coordinates to an SVG path or canvas tag path? I want to display state outlines in SVG on a map on the web. Thank you.
D3.js offers a variety of nice map related functions along these lines.
See for example http://mbostock.github.com/d3/talk/20111116/airports.html
