Render Alias networks as independent subgraphs. #30

Closed josiah-wolf-oberholtzer closed 9 years ago

josiah-wolf-oberholtzer commented 9 years ago

Highly-interconnected alias networks have O(n^2) connections.

Investigate rendering these as as either single nodes or as bounded subgraphs without internal links.

d3.geom.hull could also be used to demarcate alias-subgraph boundaries.

Alias networks now show a d3.geom.hull-based shadow. I still haven't determined if this is sufficient, by hiding the dashed lines. I suspect the dashed lines need to stay.

Alias links now use single lines (with no hidden intermediate nodes for spline control points). This seems as good as we can hope for at the moment.
