Customize a container’s background
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.

- In
the Hypergraph Connections editor, -click
the border of your container and select Set Background Image from
the pop-up menu.

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.
