Bug with nodes hovering

[jacomyal]

Sometimes sigma does not properly detect which node is under the mouse cursor.

Steps to reproduce

• Open sigmajs.org/examples/events in Chrome or Firefox (I don't have a Retina screen display BTW)
• Ensure the web page body size is 1920x953 pixels (there are surely other dimensions where it fails)
• Slowly move the mouse cursor to the left of the Valjean node, from the left, until the cursor is under the letter n of the label of the node MlleGillenormand (as in the captureabove)

Expected behavior

The Valjean node should be displayed as hovered, and the events log should display Event "enterNode", node Valjean (id "11.0").

Actual behavior

The Valjean node is displayed as not hovered, and the events log shows nothing.

The reason behind this bug is that the node sizes are not properly indexed in the quadtree:

sigma.js/src/sigma.ts

Line 817 in 6417696

this.quadtree.add(node, data.x, 1 - data.y, data.size / this.width);

The data.size / this.width is not the size of the node in the same coordinates system as the positions. Also, the bug can be even worse when zooming out, because the nodes are relatively bigger.

Once #1382 is dealt with, this issue will be solved.

Any updates on this issue? Would be very much appreciated!

@krkryger This bug is solved in the v3 branch, so if you migrate to the 3.0.0-beta.5 version, it will not occur anymore.

I waited this new version to reply because, in the 3.0.0-beta.4, another bug with similar symptoms was occurring...

I use this occasion to close this ticket, since it is actually solved.
