as i said i dont see anything related to aspectj in the templates
bug id: 70405

as i dont know if the absence of gutters and aspects in the visualizer
are interrelated bugs i dont know what happens. but indeed i dont see
any of those for abstract aspects. and again yes your description is
more or less correct.

btw. in my project that contains all of the abstract aspects i do have
also concrete ones for testcases. there of course i see everything
displayed correctly in thge visualizer.

that works and it works if i have a concrete not inherited aspect within
my project.
