Because the width can be altered by the value and the scaling functions, a constant multiplier or added                value may not give the best results. To solve this, you can supply a function. Example:
<pre class="code">var options: {  edges: {    selectionWidth: function (width) {return width*2;}  }}</pre>                It receives the <code>Number width</code> of the edge. In this simple example multiply the width by 2.                You can taylor the logic in the function as long as it returns a <code>Number</code>.            </td>        </tr>        <tr>            <td>selfReferenceSize</td>            <td class="mid">Number</td>            <td class="mid"><code>false</code></td>            <td>When the to and from nodes are the same, a circle is drawn.
