show names acting up on xygraph

I have a tab control layout in which an xy graph is on one tab and the inputs for it are on the other. Ive set up the cursors on the xy graph to show names, although when i add a cursor, then look at it on the other tab, i see the name twice, once above the cursor and one over top of it. If i tab back over to my controls, and then back to the xy graph, this problem is fixed and i can then see the name correctly, once, above the cursor. Same thing goes for if I switch windows to IE forinstance or anyhting else in windows. Sounds like a display refresh problem, but im not quite sure how to fix it. If anyone knows how I can solve this, please let me know.

Thanks,
Mark

1) Make sure you have the latest and greatest version of the driver for your display. Check with manufactuer of same for updates.

2) Slow down the graphic acceleration.

3) Reduce color depth.

One of the above almost always fixes this kind of problem.

I tried those, it didnt work. I also realized that it gave the name above the cursor only when i had the cursor legand visable, if it was not visable then only the name was given ontop of the cursor, and not above... very odd.

Does this happen for any xygraph/control layout, or a specific VI only?

I don't mind trying it out on my machine if you attach a simple VI and let me know which version of LabVIEW you were using.

Thanks,
