I tried to draw my favourite commutative diagram.
Some UI troubles:
1. I would like to be able to move a node by dragging it around.
2. While the "b" key does its job to move the objects, it is very confusing because it pans the view so that the moving object is fixed, giving the impression that everything moves but the object in question.
- varkor 6y agoYou can move vertices by clicking and dragging in the empty space around them. I appreciate this isn't immediately intuitive and I'm trying to come up with a better way to reveal this to the user. I also agree that fixing the view to the vertices with B can be confusing. My plan is to change this. Thanks for your comments!
- enriquto 6y agoI guess the opposite behavior would be more intuitive. If you drag the interior of the node, it moves. To add a new arrow you drag from the immediate outside of the node. Besides, in tikz I draw 3D commutative diagrams whose arrows pass in front/behind of each other. It is rather annoying to write the code for that, and it would be nice to do that somewhat automatically. Does quiver support this? For example, to draw a 3D cube. EDIT: more comments: there are some important missing arrowhead styles. For example, if there are bijections in your diagram, it is common to use a single bidirectional arrow with two arrohweads.
- varkor 6y agoThere are open issues for these feature requests: - Crossing over arrows: https://github.com/varkor/quiver/issues/19 https://github.com/varkor/quiver/issues/19 - Two-headed arrows: https://github.com/varkor/quiver/issues/37 https://github.com/varkor/quiver/issues/37 I hope to get to them before too long. Thanks for the suggestions!
