Visualization is indispensable in the analysis and interpretation of data from experiment and simulation. To adequately represent the diversity of biological phenomena, researchers need to be supported with tools that are easy to use and allow effective yet individual data visualizations. The visualization tool Omix is an editor for metabolic network diagrams and a customizable visualization framework. The scripting language OVL, the Omix Visualization Language, enables script‐based data visualization. An intuitive user interface, several newly developed, domain‐specific drawing automatisms as well as innovative visualization concepts, like atom mappings in the context of the network topology, make the software Omix a mature computational tool supporting the specific requirements of researchers from systems biology and life science domains.
