You could argue it's 1d, actually, since sequence is fundamental, not positioning on the x axis.
At any rate it's (mostly+) categorically different from what visual programming attempts. Code must be read, comprehended, and a mental model built. Visual programming is designed to give a gestalt spatial intuition for code structure -- a different kind of comprehension.
+Indent and spacing between functions/methods does count as a tiny bit of visual programming IMO
