NetworkOptions

Defined in: network/network.ts:26

Options for the network engine. Inherits sizing, backend, and tooltipClass.

Properties

aspectRatio?

optional aspectRatio?: number

Defined in: map/base-engine.ts:243

width ÷ height. When set, the engine is width-driven and keeps this ratio on resize.

Inherited from

BaseEngineOptions.aspectRatio

backend?

optional backend?: BackendType

Defined in: map/base-engine.ts:255

Which renderer to draw with — see BackendType. Defaults to "webgl". Use "auto" for an instant Canvas first paint that upgrades to WebGL in the background.

curveTolerance?

optional curveTolerance?: number

Defined in: map/base-engine.ts:278

Max deviation, in world units, between a curve (arc / bezierCurveTo / quadraticCurveTo in a layer’s draw) and the polyline it is baked to. Default DEFAULT_CURVE_TOLERANCE (0.25).

The bake happens once, when a layer is registered, and the view transform only scales it — so a facet measuring t world units measures t·k screen px at zoom k (#45). A chart that zooms to kMax and wants sub-pixel curves therefore wants curveTolerance: 0.25 / kMax.

It is a quality/size dial, not a free win, and it is deliberately opt-in: an arc’s segment count grows as 1/sqrt(tolerance), so 0.25 / 40 bakes ~6.3× the vertices of the curved drawables only (straight paths, rects, and points() circles — which every backend draws analytically — are untouched). Costs nothing per frame.

One setting governs the whole engine, so it also refines anchored sizeMode: "screen" glyphs, whose offsets are used directly as pixels and therefore never facet — those extra vertices buy nothing. (An unanchored screen-sizeMode layer is world-scaled and does want the finer bake.) Splitting the tolerance per drawable is tracked separately.
