Chord-wheel hover: exact-hit vs snap-to-nearest

A miniature of the "A Dictionary of Color Combinations" wheel. Both modes render the same shapes and dim the same way on hover — the only difference is how the cursor decides what it's pointing at. Move your mouse slowly across the lines inside the circle in each mode.

hovering: —

In exact mode, whenever your cursor is between two ribbons it is over nothing — the group's mouseleave fires, the dim clears, and the whole wheel flashes back to full opacity until you land on the next line. In snap mode a transparent backing disc means the cursor is always "within" the wheel, and the highlighted object is chosen by geometry (nearest ribbon via d3.Delaunay, or the arc at that angle) — so there are no dead gaps to flash on.
