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.
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.
