Adjust sigma gender representation #184

Closed markschwindt closed 3 years ago

markschwindt commented 3 years ago

As of the current staged version the character gender representation is being signaled both through gender symbols in the cast list and three different network node colours on the sigma canvas. While offering a more detailed view, the overall implementation could become more intuitive.

markschwindt commented 3 years ago

I would suggest to reduce the number of node color variants to only two colours from the palette: #61affe for default (undefined/neutral) and #1f2448 for gendered nodes.

The distinction between male and female characters could in turn be indicated through different node shapes: circle for female and square for male characters. For that latter the sigma component setting would need to change from <NodeShapes default="circle"/> to <NodeShapes default="square"/>

The above PR implements the changes suggested by @markschwindt. @lehkost please have a look at staging.dracor.org and maybe leave a comment in the PR when further work is necessary.
