#: How selections are handled:
#:
#: "toggle"
#: The user clicks on points (while optionally holding down a modifier
#: key) to select or deselect them. If the point is already selected,
#: clicking it again deselects it. The modifier key to use is set by
#: **multiselect_modifier**. The only way to deselect points is by
#: clicking on them; clicking on a screen space outside of the plot does
#: not deselect points.
#: "multi"
#: Like **toggle** mode, except that the user can deselect all points
#: at once by clicking on the plot area away from a point.
#: "single"
#: The user can only select a single point at a time.
#: "off"
#: The user cannot select points via clicking.
selection_mode = Enum("toggle", "multi", "single", "off")
#: The modifier key to use to multi-select points. Only used in **toggle**
#: and **multi** selection modes.
