Visual editors play an important part in business application tooling. A rich visual notation was developed for a set of visual editors included as part of integration application development tooling (IBM® Websphere® Integration Developer 6.0).The Visual Snippet Editor includes unique visual notation to help create code snippets. The snippets are laid out automatically by the editor. Some of the distinguishing visual elements are the grouping arrangement, the shape of the terminals and activities, the syntax color, the icons and the appearance of all first class element and their behaviour.
