In Vega: A Visualization Grammar
This does look like where they are generating the mouseover/highlight regions for the multi-line graphs. And the highlight regions for the scatterplot are being done here https://github.com/mozilla/metrics-graphics/blob/master/js/m... For both they are using D3's built-in voronoi function which will generate the appropriate interaction regions when given a list of points. These polygonal regions surround the given points and fill the graph, acting as large unmissable mouseover targets instead of the tiny points. It's really useful. https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Voronoi-Geom More on voronoi tessalation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voronoi_diagram
