Quick fix: Select preview on hover for edge/node #397

Closed Garbash closed 9 years ago

Garbash commented 9 years ago

Users have been reporting trouble to select nodes and edges that are dense. E.g See how hard it is to select a specific edge from here: screen shot 2015-03-24 at 15 49 32

A quick solution, that would be useful for the future as well is to add a "preview select" on hover.

This means that on mouse hover above a node/edge the single, specific node/edge would be selected(note that unlike usual selection, connected nodes/edges would not be selected).

This would give users a preview of what will happen if they click the node/edge, and prevent unnecessary frustration when clicking on the wrong one.

Note - usually these kind of hover actions tend to have a slow reaction time when dealing with big graphs, do you have any ideas how to make the time between hover to highlight fast?
