Direction of the edges?

Open renyuneyun opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Hi there, I like this extension very much, but find it a bit confusing when reading the graph after it collected more data. The biggest problem right now is the direction.

Basically, I believe the big round nodes with icons are the websites I visited; the small triangular nodes without icons are the websites they accessed (for CSS, e.g.). The direction is implicitly from the big round nodes to the small triangular nodes.

However, I also found some small round nodes without icons. I think the size of the node is related to the number of times I visited the site; there is no icon because the site doesn't declare a favicon. That's fine.

However, some round nodes link together, so I don't know how should I interpret this when three of them are linked together (as a line, for example). Is it possible to add an indication of direction to the edges?

Thanks for your feedback @renyuneyun . I am collecting feedback from various people, and eventually i will have to prioritise what to work on. However if you are interested and need any pointers on where to add the direction property into the codebase, I am happy to help.
