One screen with all the 3 configurations feels quite cramped and confusing.
Need room for actual visualization.
Need room for explanations / reference to help docs.
Steps!:
PLAYGROUND HERE (netlify preview #3443)
Notice: Selecting a query with params adds a step.

Can see my draft PR here https://github.com/getredash/redash/pull/3443
I’d like to get feedback and ideas before continuing.

Regarding the visualization step - the selectbox is a sub-par UX.
I’m thinking sidebar with vertical radio buttons and viz content to the right.

Updated viz step look - sidebar with radio buttons, “add” button at the bottom.
Also, swapped “params” and “viz” steps cause it makes more sense.

I’m thinking of removing the “Review Parameters” as a stand-alone step, and instead having an “edit params” button appear in the query selection step when relevant. @arikfr wdyt?

I wanted to get rid of the selectbox for a long time… I was thinking of cards UI, but seems like you found a better solution 
I think the preview placeholder you have there should show the widget itself and not just the visualization. Then when we add extra options like “hide description”/“hide title”/“change title”, it can all be previewed here. Wdyt?
I assume that 90% of the time people will go with default (use dashboard parameter), so I see why it makes sense. Just need to make sure it’s not too hidden and clear.

maybe move it to the pick visualization step, and rename the step?
Basically this step becomes pick visualization + edit widget options.
