This paper describes a method to manage a large scale visual program for a visual programming system. The conventional two-dimensional visual programming systems have a limitation on their expression of program structure.

We implement a new general-purpose three-dimensional visual programming system “3D-PP” to make visual programs more expressive. We apply the direct manipulation to operate three-dimensional program elements. Programmers can describe a large scale visual program in an intuitive manner. The programmers can also execute the program with animated representation.
