Viewers active and consequences on panel nodes, etc

Hi there,

What are exactly best practices with Viewer Active state ?

I spent several minutes to understand why my Panel node, inside a Container wasn’t reporting anything. Indeed, the parent Container wasn’t Viewer Active.

How do you manage this ? Locally (I mean you create a container, and sometimes you put it active or not) ? Globally (you manage the active state from upper parents or even perform) ?

Or maybe, do I make my mind twisted into useless loops ?! :crazy_face:

The underlying question is: Does Viewer Active relate only with UI action ? If yes, I understand the need and the good way of activating ALL Containers using Panel node inside
