help remove pop up subvi

Hello, I have a strange situation with labview. A subvi pops up
everytime it is called during the operation of the main program. This
is annoying becuase the display in the front panel is completely
blocked by this popped up subvi. Is there any recommendation on how I
can prevent this sub vi from popping up (this subvi has some global
and local variables)? I would also like to know why this sub vi is
popping up while the others are work just fine.

Thanks.

Typically, there are two ways for this to happen. One is by right-clicking on a subVI, selecting SubVI Node Setup and checking the Show Front Panel when called box. The other is in the subVI itself. Open the subVI and go to VI Properties. Go to Window Appearance and click the Customize button. The same show front panel when called option is there.

Double check that the window properties are not set to "Show front panel
when called." (Right click on the icon in the upper right corner, VI
Properties...->Category->Window Appearance->Customize...)
