Iteration 2

[ey51]

• Selected Parent Chain - thick border for selected parent chain (SPC) blocks, same as the thicker link between them.
• Selected Parent Chain - blue instead of green. (what will distinguish blue blocks on the SPC from blue blocks not on the SPC is their thicker border.)
• Remove the SPC toggle option. It should just be blue with the thicker border on the blocks and thicker links.
• Blue/Red Distinction - other than the color, there should be a pattern distinction between blue and red. (You can use the translucent diagonal line pattern you used for SPC blocks (for either the blue or for the red); the SPC blocks already has a distinction of thick border.)
• Selected Parent Chain - straight line in the middle (not letting physics push them), with other blocks distributed more or less evenly between both of the SPC's two sides.
• Links to have Arrow-ends - only if this can be done without much effort (hours, not days).
• Cards - SPC blocks cards also to have thicker border.
• Cards - Remove buttons that do the same. Leave only the info and copy buttons. And clicking the card transitions/animates to it.
• Cards - Cards also same color as blocks (only blue and red).
• Green/Red links - only on hover, not on selected. Also, not bold, just full opacity and green/red.
• Selected blocks - have a much-thicker blue translucent padding to show selected blocks. Keep the blue links between selected blocks.
• Search by block number
• Cards - close the info modal with Escape key.

[aspect]

http://dagviz.daglabs.com has been updated with the latest iteration of user interface changes.

In addition to the general todo list above, UI had some cleanup - all options have been moved into a popup. We've also finished orientation change support.

Selection indicators are done differently than discussed, @ey51 please let me know what you guys think.

We've also changed the graph layout method, making the graph look much more compact and balanced. The new 'deterministic' is the way to go.

@aspect I like it. I wrote up some of the new comments in #6 and there is also one small bug #7 . Really great work.

Very successful iteration. Kudos
