Hello professionals! Is there a known tool that can be used to visually (graphically) assist in organizing the individual objects that are used to create an application? Microsoft Visio is such a tool on the Windows side. It there something that you might use to assist in organizing your 7000+ lines of code projects? Thank you for your advice !

Visio is such a tool, but a poor one. OmniGraffle is the standard Mac replacement for Visio. There are much more powerful tools for software modeling, but most of them are junk and Windows-only. A project with 7000 lines is just at that odd place where it is getting too big to manage but still way too small to really justify a professional too. There are a number of Mac UML tools, but most of them are junk. No good answer for you.
