Newbie output question

Hi all, first time poster. I’ve gone through loads of tutorials and forum threads but I can’t find an answer. I have a load of nodes connected within a container, all ending with an Out node. My question is how do I actually see this output within the Perform window? The Operator for Perform is set to the name of the container which contains the node structure, but it’s just showing up as black.

The out node is used to connect your container to another container.

Open the Parameter panel for your container, and on the “Look” page, drag a TOP into the “Background TOP” parameter. If your container is TOP based, (if your out node is an out TOP), your out top will likely work here, if there is more going on you might want to investigate the OP Viewer TOP and/or the Render Top

Thank you! That does the job
