I am trying to create a multi-line graph and updating the data on button click. On each line, I want to highlight the intersection point with a cirlce. Now on button click, I was able to update the line path, but the old highlighted intersection points are not removed from the svgContainer(for eaxmple clicking update2 then update1 do not removes the last set of circles which are not connected to any line).
<input type="button" onclick="update1()" value="Update" />
<input type="button" onclick="update2()" value="UpdateDimension_T" />

Here is the link to fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/aakashjain/1dc57aL7/1/
You'll need an "exit" selection:
points.selectAll('.dot')
.data(function(d, index){
var a = [];
d.forEach(function(point,i){
a.push({'index': index, 'point': point});
});
return a;
})
.exit()
.remove();
Here is the update fiddle:. https://jsfiddle.net/1dc57aL7/2/
(Just a tip: you have a lot of duplicated code here. Your "update1" and "update2" functions could be way smaller)
