Abstract
A user interface may display visual traces between semantic constructs in representations of functionality. The representations of functionality may include textual programming language code, graphical programming language code, graphical or textual models, and/or text. The visual trace enables a party to visually review the correlations between the semantic constructs. The visual trace may include unique visual cues for distinguishing a degree of nesting of programming language constructs. For example, each successive level of nesting of a programming language construct may be associated with a different shade of a color. The user interface may be interactive and provide real-time feedback based upon actions of a party. The system determines what semantic constructs are to be visually distinguished on the user interface based on the location of an action and based on the hierarchy of semantic constructs and correlations.
