Hi Joel, I am working on the PR to add the diagram visualization to the documentation [a]. I had added both text and diagram output to all the examples, because I did not realize you could click on the diagram sections to get more information. It wasn't until my recent discussion with Thomas where he pointed it out; it wasn't intuitive to me. It would be good to either: a) add a note somewhere indicating "click on the text in the pipeline visualization to see more details, such as parameter settings" b) add a GIF of it to the documentation c) if when the user puts their cursor over the diagram at all, show something like "Click an estimator type to see its parameters" I added this PR to the agenda for the next scikit-learn meeting.

HI Reshama,

You can click the nodes in the diagram (obviously the screenshot loses this). Is there some way we can make that more obvious? Passing your mouse (if you're on an appropriate device) over it shows the hand cursor, which is some indication.

Would it be helpful if when the user put their cursor over the diagram at all, it showed something like "Click an estimator type to see its parameters"??

Hello, This question is for the community (*not* the core contributors).

In referencing the *diagram representation* of the pipeline [a], what would be the best way for you to find out what "strategy" (from: mean, median, most_frequent, constant) is being used for "SimpleImputer"?

(Also, I am attaching a screenshot of the diagram.)

It's not a quiz or anything [ :) ], I'm trying to figure out where folks would look first to get more information on the pipeline.
