Cannot see display in any chip

I am creating a 7 segment display and a 4-bit register with the display as per this video on Visualizing Data with 7-Segment Displays : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEDQpqhY2MA

At the 14:50 minute mark, you can see that he created a chip for a 4 bit register with a display, and at the 15:00 minute mark, he is using it in another chip where the display is visible. When I try to do the same (screenshot 2), what I see is a box  for the 4-bit register with pins for input and output but without the display. How can I get the display to show up whenever I use the chip while making custom chips?

Here is another example. I created a simple display chip and when I try to use it I get screen shot 1.

Hi, im the guy who said "So, I found out that it must be somewhere in "the code" there is VidHelper.cs and VidHelper.cs.meta in there.". Turns out i was completely wrong. I uploaded a video about how you change the setting. Here is the video:  youtube.com/watch?v=LeBJ-ppysp0

That's a feature that he made for his video. It's disabled by default, the only way to activate it is by going into the code of the game.

How do you go into the code of the game?

I don't know what and how to edit the code, but i know how to get the code.

Go to this website:

https://github.com/SebLague/Digital-Logic-Sim

Then click on the green "Code" button and then click "Download zip".

Then go to your file explorer and right click on the file and click "Unzip".

Then, finally go into the folder to edit the code.

(I don't know what to change in the folder though).

That code as @fuighy mentioned, can be opened in Unity. I don't know though how to enable the display visualizer thing, but this a quote from another comment: "So, I found out that it must be somewhere in "the code" there is VidHelper.cs and VidHelper.cs.meta in there." If you do something with these files you can enable the features. And I know you can increase the size of the workspace, there's a guide here.

How do I run the source code?

Assuming your using Windows, You can download Unity and there should be a button like 'open project' or 'open folder' then click the folder with the code in it, then Digital Logic Sim is open in Unity. If you have Notepad or Visual Studio (Code) then you can edit the code in there.

For a more in-depth explanation someone else in the community might know, I've personally never experimented with the code of Digital Logic Sim that much, just opened the code in Unity.

He is gonna add it in a future update

that's good

Also, @redcraft7578 , Your tutorial did not work for me. I am trying to debug it. I used the version that was on the video in Unity. I clicked on the checkboxes and recompiled the program. but it doesn't show up on the display. It shows up as a box.

For me too
