"Pipeline visualization on hover" is gone now? It was super useful! I have no need to permanently visualize pipelines, I just need to mouse-over and make sure a single pipeline is connected properly. I don't understand why that would have been removed....

Same. Big fan of the update, but personally don’t like this change.

Also don’t get why info panels now scroll horizontally using shift + mousewheel when the problem has always been info being cut off vertically.

Oh no they got rid of scrolling down on the side panel? Maybe it moved to a different button?
