Which tool provides a graphic visual representation of a Blueprint?

In Nutanix Calm, every blueprint is created and modified in the Blueprint Editor.

The editor presents the blueprint as a drag-and-drop canvas that graphically depicts all application tiers, services, dependencies, and actions. This visual topology allows designers to understand resource relationships at a glance and is the only interface in Calm that renders the blueprint in graphic form. Other blueprint-related tools (Showback, Configuration, Macros) provide text or tabular data only, not a visual diagram.

A. Blueprint Showback – Displays cost analytics; no visual topology is rendered.

B. Blueprint Configuration – Lists variables and settings in form fields; lacks graphical canvas.

D. Blueprint Macros – Supply shorthand syntax inside scripts; they are code snippets, not a visualization tool.
