@mcgilman Your argument for consistency is very persuasive, and I would
agree that adding the move/grab cursor is inconsistent. A brief comparison
with the flow canvas:
- Arrow/default cursor over the canvas, even when dragging
- Hand/pointer cursor over processors, suggesting right-click/ctrl-click
action
So for the lineage graph, I would translate this to:
- Arrow/default with drag-to-pan behavior for the background
- Hand/pointer hovering over lineage node circles where there is a
right-click/ctrl-click action
- Label text is a toss-up, which is why we're here :)
What about if we considered the entire lineage node circle + label text as
a unit, sharing both the hand/pointer cursor and the right-click menu behavior.
It would just be a bigger, simpler target. Would that help resolve confusion
over how to interact with it?
