Feature request - bigger arcs on multi relationship connections #20

Closed graphadvantage closed 3 years ago

graphadvantage commented 3 years ago

Wow!

What a terrific upgrade the arrows.app is! Nice work, so much more useful and handy for designing graphs and communicating graph designs with clients.

One tiny, tiny ask - would it be possible to increase the arc (or make the arc slider configurable) for multi-relationships?

Currently the arc is sufficiently shallow that the relationship type labels overlap and are difficult to read.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi @graphadvantage thanks for the feedback!

I will certainly adjust the defaults here because they are clearly sub-optimal. In the long term, I'll also make "deflection" configurable as you suggest.

For right now, the best you can do is to adjust type-font-size or detail-position in the inspector. If you do this with nothing selected, it will apply for all relationships.

Hi @graphadvantage , finally remembered to follow up here. A couple of weeks ago we changed the default chunky style, reducing type-font-size. Here is how a pair of relationships look now: image

Hopefully this is much better for your use case. Also, I forgot to mention it in the previous comment, but I think we have always supported margin-peer which I think does what you are asking for in the original request. Here is the same graph, but with margin-peer set to 40 instead of the default 20: image

Thanks Alastair!

It works great - I was doing some modeling this week and I saw the updates. Thank you!
