### What would you like to happen? Description In Pentaho PDI, there is a side panel that lists all steps/transforms already placed in the transformation/pipeline, allowing users to search by name and quickly navigate to an item on the canvas. In Apache Hop GUI, navigation currently relies on manual zoom/scroll on the canvas, and there is no searchable “outline” of existing transforms. This becomes a significant usability and productivity issue for medium/large pipelines, especially during maintenance and troubleshooting. <img width="601" height="965" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/fc0740bb-7b44-443c-b474-bea80dc5522e"; /> Proposed functionality Create a “Pipeline Outline” side panel for the currently opened pipeline that provides: A list of all transforms (name + type/icon), optionally including hops/connections A search input with instant filtering by name and/or transform type Clicking an item selects the transform and centers (and optionally zooms) it in the canvas (Optional) Sorting (name/type) and filters: disabled transforms, unconnected transforms, validation/error markers Expected benefits Faster navigation in large pipelines, reducing time spent locating transforms Lower operational risk (less chance of editing the wrong transform due to visual clutter) Improved troubleshooting efficiency (quickly jump to key transforms and problem areas) Smoother migration/adoption for users coming from PDI, reducing friction and training effort Better overall UX for complex pipelines by providing a clear, structured inventory view ### Issue Priority Priority: 3 ### Issue Component Component: Hop Gui -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
