hello.
I think the controller is out of sight.
Look for it in Find Control.

 How do you know it's "copied" if you can't see it anywhere???

One possibility is that your code is gigantic and you are outside the valid coordinates (see also).

Can you attach some code (e.g. the "another VI" containing, but not showing, the copied code)?

How do you Copy? (drag selected code? ctrl+c/ctrl+v? right-click subVI replace with contents? Some other way?)

Is this a serious Post?  If you really have a LabVIEW VI that "is invisible" and you want us to help you to "see it", you need to attach your VI.  Otherwise, the most reasonable explanation of why the copied code is not visible is that the original code "is not visible" and not really LabVIEW code.

Hmm, invisible code -- what a great idea!  I could write a wonderful LabVIEW routine in "Invisible Code", and not worry about anyone "stealing my Intellectual Property" because ... it's Invisible ...
