Are both your subpanels calling the same VI that contains the 3D graph, or are you using two separate VI's? If your subpanels are sharing the same sub-VI, then that sub-VI should be made re-entrant executable.

Possible bug with SubPanels in LV7.1

There looks like a possible bug with the SubPanels in LV7.1. If a VI contains two SubPanels, where each SubPanel contains a VI that has a 3D graph in it, then the 3D graph will only be visible in one of them (the first one to be inserted into a SubPanel). Using the Visibility property does not
