D3.js - Force-Layout V4 border issue

Question

I am currently working on the FCC National Contiguity project

In fact, I was able to understand how to visualize sprites and link nodes and links.

The only thing I came across was to implement how to behave similarly to the FCC example . In particular, I try to make nodes repel from the boundaries, as in the example.

However, mine does not behave this way (in fact, it is very grouped, but I do not know exactly what properties in d3.js Force Documents V4 I have to study). Instead, it seems that although node and links stop at the border, it stops at that point

const width = w - (margin.left + margin.right);
const height = h - (margin.top + margin.bottom);

let flagNodes = d3.select("#canvas")
                  .append("div")
                  .classed("flag-nodes",true)


let svg = d3.select("#canvas")
              .append("svg")
              .attr("id","chart")
              .attr("width", w)
              .attr("height", h)


let chart = svg.append("g")
                .classed("display", true)
                .attr("transform", "translate(" + margin.left + "," + margin.top + ")");

let simulation = d3.forceSimulation()
    .force("link", d3.forceLink().id(function(d,i) {
      return i;
    }))
    .force("charge", d3.forceManyBody().strength(-60).distanceMax(50).distanceMin(5))
    .force("center", d3.forceCenter(width/2, height/2))
    .force("collide", d3.forceCollide().radius(35))
    // .force("centering", d3.forceCenter(,height))
    // .force("position", d3.forceX(0).strength(.01))
    // .force("position", d3.forceY(-18))

:

fixBounds() {
    const graphNodes = this.forceSimulation.nodes();

    graphNodes.forEach((node) => {
        if (node.x - this.nodeRadius < 0) {
            node.x = this.nodeRadius;
            node.vx = 0;
        }

        if (node.y - this.nodeRadius < 0) {
            node.y = this.nodeRadius;
            node.vy = 0;
        }

        if (this.width && node.x + this.nodeRadius > this.width) {
            node.x = this.width - this.nodeRadius;
            node.vx = 0;
        }

        if (this.height && node.y + this.nodeRadius > this.height) {
            node.y = this.height - this.nodeRadius;
            node.yx = 0;
        }
    })
}
