_get_scalar_alpha(self)
If the alpha value is a matrix, the method returns 1.0 because pixels have individual alpha values (see ~._ImageBase._make_image
for details). If the alpha value is a scalar, the method returns said value to be applied to the artist as a whole because pixels do not have individual alpha values.
Get a scalar alpha value to be applied to the artist as a whole.
Hover to see nodes names; edges to Self not shown, Caped at 50 nodes.
Using a canvas is more power efficient and can get hundred of nodes ; but does not allow hyperlinks; , arrows or text (beyond on hover)
SVG is more flexible but power hungry; and does not scale well to 50 + nodes.
All aboves nodes referred to, (or are referred from) current nodes; Edges from Self to other have been omitted (or all nodes would be connected to the central node "self" which is not useful). Nodes are colored by the library they belong to, and scaled with the number of references pointing them
