Backstage flicker

[nlap]

The top of the backstage menu flickers white when it animates open/closed. I don't think I'm doing anything different than the demo app, which does animate properly.

It seems to just happen where the window's title bar is underneath. Rest of the backstage animates smoothly. I was able to capture it:

Any ideas? Thanks

Could you post a repro for that issue?
As you said it works in the showcase application.

I should have tested a bit more. I had a control that was wider than the available area when the backstage is open.

Not sure if there's anything to fix in fluent here.

If you could attach a repro I might be able to fix it in some future version.

For example, in FluentTest add a large width to the textbox on line 89 in TestContent.xaml:

<TextBox Text="{Binding Mode=OneWay}" Width="6000" />

The backstage menu will now flicker when animating in the Office 2013 theme.

I wouldn't consider this a bug, but a feature instead.
It shows you that something is wrong with your content. ;-)

Haha, fair enough!
