Backstage Close Button not showing

Hi Marc,

If you have one of our Metro themes active for your app (via ThemeManager.CurrentTheme), the backstage close button (circle with arrow) should be visible.  It will revert to the standard File button only if using a non-Metro theme.

If that doesn't help solve your question, then please make a new simple sample project that shows the issue and email that to our support address.  Reference this post and rename the .zip file extension so it doesn't get spam blocked.  Thanks!

Just in case anyone else has this problem:

We got an answer from Actipro Support. Thank you very much!

The problem was that we were setting a WindowChrome instance on a RibbonWindow. The documentation on Window Chrome talks about not doing that because RibbonWindow already has a WindowChrome installed. You can get the existing instance of WindowChrome instead and use that.

After removing the WindowChrome from our XAML and putting the DataTemplate with an x:Key into Window.Resources, we had to do this at the end of our MainWindow constructor and it almost worked as we wanted:

WindowChrome.GetChrome(this).TitleBarContentTemplate = this.FindResource("HelpButtonTemplate") as DataTemplate;

Finally the graphical behaviour of the button (especially Foregorund and Background) was not as expected, so we had to style it with a DataTemplate.
