simplify output of "draw" command

Open jeisner opened this issue 11 years ago • 4 comments

As nwf said today:

Right now, the crux of a hyperedge is shown as a rectangle with a mysterious rule index. Shrink this down, perhaps using shape="invis".

Hovering over any part of the hyperedge (the crux or the arms, i.e., arrows) should bring up a tooltip that displays the text of the actual rule. Ideally, if you hover over one of the input arms, the corresponding term in the rule should be highlighted.

Also, "draw foo(X)" should produce a smaller hypergraph that shows only the nodes that match foo(X) plus their transecedents.

Are you planning to use this for teaching?

I'm not sure. The students won't be able to use it over a PuTTy connection. And it would have to be simplified considerably for me to use it in class. So I think it shouldn't be a priority.

I was referring to the title of the ticket. See the first post on the ticket for details. (By "simplified considerably," I mainly meant that it's confusing because of the rectangles.)
