matplotlib 3.5.1

transmute(self, path, mutation_size, linewidth)

The transmute method is the very core of the ArrowStyle class and must be overridden in the subclasses. It receives the path object along which the arrow will be drawn, and the mutation_size, with which the arrow head etc. will be scaled. The linewidth may be used to adjust the path so that it does not pass beyond the given points. It returns a tuple of a Path instance and a boolean. The boolean value indicate whether the path can be filled or not. The return value can also be a list of paths and list of booleans of a same length.

Examples

See :

Local connectivity graph

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
