Use the Struts 2 graphical editor to visualize and create complex Struts 2 configurations. The visual flow page is available for all Struts 2 configuration files, not just those created with this editor. Changes made in the graphical editor are immediately synched with the XML configuration and vice versa.

Create actions, packages, web pages and include other Struts 2 configuration files.

Create and manipulate action results to connect to web pages or other actions.

Create extends relationships between packages.

Observe at a glance the other configuration files your configuration includes.

The Struts 2 wizards can be invoked from the palette of the graphical editor or the context menu of the source editor.
