boolean - if True then picking will be enabled and the<br>
artist will fire a pick event if the mouse event is over<br>
the artist<br>
<br>
float - if picker is a number it is interpreted as an<br>
epsilon tolerance in points and the the artist will fire<br>
off an event if it's data is within epsilon of the mouse<br>
event. For some artists like lines and patch collections,<br>
the artist may provide additional data to the pick event<br>
that is generated, eg the indices of the data within<br>
epsilon of the pick event<br>

function which determines whether the artist is hit by the<br>
mouse event.<br>
