Question on XML for Watch face Design

I have a few templates for watch faces. I am trying to make my own watchface for my Venu.  I don't really know coding so basically am just changing background and rearranging where things are.  I have a question regarding the XML it uses for layout.  I am a visual person I need to visually see the design I am doing.  I have a web editor that does have an XML tab. My question is could I essentially use the XML tab and paste the XML from the watch face template and have it bring it up visually there?  Then edit it and copy and paste the XML back into the layout XML in the Garmin editor?  Or is the XML completely different?  Just looking for an easier way to do it visually.  Do they have a visual XML editor that's free that would do essentially this where I can just copy and paste XML?

Thanks!
