Enlarge Hoverable Items in Experimental Section? #188

Closed ethanjperez closed 6 years ago

ethanjperez commented 6 years ago

I found the hoverable items (in toggles, sliders, interactive t-SNEs, etc.) to be rather small - is that just me? I think enlarging these may make it easier and less time-consuming for readers to navigate and interact with the hoverable buttons and sliders.

I think there would be a big benefit to allowing people to hover around without looking / thinking about it (just by vaguely moving the mouse left to right, rather than carefully coordinating to hover over a specific point) and thus just focus on the images / graphs that are changing.

For the sliders, perhaps a "click and drag" mechanism would work. Something else that might work is a large bar, e.g. with squares of different colors for different feature maps, with no white space between the sections of the bar. In general, decreasing the white space between hoverable items would help I think.
