Hello,
When we hide a Backstage control from one Backstage TAB button and in it action we show a modal dialog, then when back to the main Windows, the ribbon controls is not completely painted, it seems that does not finished the rendering, as the attached capture, Could you please advise some guideline to do that in good manner?
Tanks,

Hello DevExpress support team.
I have checked it and it is partially fixed on DevExpress VCL v.21.1.6. I meant that the Ribbon-Quick access tool is still missing when hide the backstage and show a modal dialog.
Could you please confirm verify it?
Thanks.
Hello,
We were not able to address this behavior. Please use the PostMessage solution that I suggested above.
Hi Paulo,
As it says this was fixed, I removed the PostMessage system that I had implemented, also because this strategy can carry other issues depending on the context.
Anyway, I think we can live with this issue of missing the Quick access toolbar in this case until you could fix it. However I wonder, why this works fine when the element is a Button, I mean: Buttons->TdxRibbonBackstageViewMenuButton. This associates a button that when click on this, it automatically closes the backstage and completes the operation in a good manner in all contexts
Regards,

Hello Deidy,
You are right, a modal dialog may interrupt the animation process since it receives focus. Please check if a postponed procedure can help you avoid this behavior (see the example attached).
You can use the following link to get that patch:

To be honest, such partial patches is not a good practice. It is more reliable to download a corresponding update.
The patch does not work as expected. I will try to upgrade as soon as possible.
Thanks.
