For those that are using my icon editor or other home made editor using the lv_icon.vi option
There is a LabVIEW LOCKUP problem when trying to edit a sub pallet in the pallet editor. If you open the pallet editor.  and then try to edit a sub pallet menu icon
Nothing happens. The icon editor is running in the background but it is somehow being suppressed by the pallet editor. If you are using my editor or you have set the lv_icon.vi to a non modal state then there is a work around. for Windows press (CTRL-Space-x) and the editor should maximize and work normally. If the icon editor is set to a modal or floating state then you are out of luck. I was unable to get LabVIEW back without the 3 finger salute (CTRL-ALT-DELETE) By default the lv_icon.vit and Sample_lv_icon.vi are set to Dialog which is modal.  So if you are going to create your own icon editor I would recommend setting the Windows appearance to default.
I have reported this issue to NI. My thanks to tcplomp for finding this bug and the work around. -------------------- If you are interested in Time saving programming

Maybe an option, if you don't get a valid VI reference (path check or something) you could maximize the window yourself?

This bug is not fixed in 8.5.1. It will be fixed in the next full version of LabVIEW.
