OutOfBand Element
In a pipeline, the first object emitted is chosen as the type to format the output of the pipeline. PowerShell attempts for format subsequent objects using the same view. If the object does not fit the view, it is not displayed. You can create OutOfBand views that can be used for format these other types.

Parent Elements
| Element | Description |
|---|---|
| View Element | Defines a view that displays one or more .NET objects. |
Remarks
When the "shape" of formatting (view) has been determined by previous objects, you may want objects of different types to continue using that shape (table, list, or whatever) even if they specify their own views. Or sometimes you want your view to take over. When OutOfBand is true, the view applies regardless of previous objects that may have selected a different view.
