XSD Visualization?

I have been hunting for tools to visualise XSD files for a long while now. and as already stated. my top two are

  • Altova XML Spy
    • Best features and great look and feel. prohibitively expensive for the small user.
  • Liquid XML Studio
    • Really good alternative to Altova, does things a little differently, but its worth finding out the methods in LiquidXML

Outside of those two, I personally struggle to find tools which can present all the information visually (especially long XSD Files). this includes listing the enumeration values of elements.

If you just need a quick method to view XSD files visually, I quite like these two viewing tools.

  • XSD Diagram - EXE file download
  • XML Grid - Online XSD viewer

Try:

  • Oxygen XML Schema Editor
  • Liquid Technologies' XML / XSD Editor

There are plenty others, too - but I prefer one of those two.

I find the Eclipse standard XSD editor to be OK. See some screenshots here. You can install it from the standard update site.
