This screencast is fully dedicated to explaining the structural zoom feature of aspectmaps.
Differences in this screencast with respect to AspectMaps 1.0
AspectMaps 1.0 has some differences in how classes and aspects are displayed. However the core behavior of the structural zoom is unaffected. More in detail, this screencast differs from 1.0 in the following:
Here, to zoom out packages anywhere in the package can be clicked
Here, the extended representation of classes and aspects does not include the class name
Here, the names of classes includes their package name
Here, the popup of attributes does not include their type
Here, method names also include their parameters
Here, the colors of the aspects differ
Here. the visualization also shows superfluous packages (defined outside of the Eclipse project, for which no complete information is available), e.g. java.* packages
