The "Single node" style is not an available option in the Views UI which prevents creating a working Top Node view. I'm not sure if this was by design or not, but the issue is in the style plugin definition in top_node.views.inc. The 'no ui' option is set to true causing the style not to show up in the interface.

    'style' => array(
      'full_node' => array(
        'no ui' => TRUE,
        'title' => t('Single node'),
        'help' => t('Display a single node in page view mode.'),
        'handler' => 'top_node_plugin_style_full_node',
        'uses row plugin' => FALSE,
        'uses grouping' => FALSE,
        'uses options' => FALSE,
        'type' => 'normal',
        'help topic' => 'style-unformatted',
      ),
    ),

You need to use the 'Single Node' Display, not the Style. Using a normal page view won't work, as displaying a proper node page requires full control over the wrapping HTML, tabs, and so on.

The Display (actually called 'Node page') doesn't work without manually selecting the "Single node" style. It does not automatically use this style as the documentation suggests. I'm using Views-6.x-2.11.
