I'm working with the following code snippet and I'm trying to correct a few errors with the behaviour of the links.
The intended behaviour is as follows:
- By default, the links are coloured according to the 'type' of link (either 'A' or 'E')
- On mouseover of a node, the node and it's immediate neighbours remain at full opacity and colour, but the remaining nodes and links drop opacity and the link colour turns to white.
- On mouseout, the nodes and links return to their original opacity and colour
- On zoom, both the nodes and links zoom accordingly.
Unfortunately my code doesn't satisfy the last three bullet points, and somewhere along the way the links are now being rendered on top of the nodes rather than the other way around.
Can anyone help point out where I've gone wrong?
