By default, container nodes are translucent so you can partially see external nodes or connections underneath them. You can make container nodes opaque by selecting Opaque Containers from the Hypergraph or Hypershade options menu.

You can also set the background for each container in the Hypergraph to a custom image. This can help you quickly identify a container by sight.

To customize the background of a container in the Hypergraph

In the Hypergraph Connections editor, -click the border of your container and select Set Background Image from the pop-up menu.
The Adjust Background Image window appears.
Enter the path of your image file in the Image Name field or click Load and navigate to select the file in the browser window.
Select Fit to Width or Fit to Height.
Use the value fields or sliders to adjust the size of the image.
