Navigate the graph versus Show details about the elements #24

Open guywiz opened 7 years ago

guywiz commented 7 years ago

The two modes "Navigate the graph" and "Show details about the elements" do not differ much. It seems all interaction available within the "Navigate the graph" mode are identically available within the "Show details about the elements" mode.

As a consequence, why don't we drop the "Navigate the graph" mode?

(I might be wrong ...)

The "Show details" interactor allows user to click on the nodes to get the information whereas the "Navigate" interactor offers only navigation through zoom and span operation. The latter was basically proposed to avoid unwanted clicks creating information panels during the graph exploration. It is basically the same behaviour as Tulip.
