Hi, I’m having problems with modals, when i call show() and hide() method, sometimes have delay and sometimes the modal stay on front but invisible and sometimes it stay invisible but on front of view… in the last 2 cases, the “click” goes to the behind screen. Testing in chrome I had no problems, only on the emulator and on the device (ios). Somebody can help me? Tks. ---

There’s been a bit of back and forth on this already. Check for solutions in this post: > [@Modal background bug](http://forum.ionicframework.com/t/modal-background-bug/1345/): > > Hi, I think there is a bug when you open a modal, sometimes you can see the content behind the modal. The background-color of the modal seems not to be applied (it should cover the content behind the modal). However when you resize the windows, the modal cover the whole content. I saw this in Chrome browser. It will work well after resizing the window. You can see this behavior [here](http://codepen.io/anon/pen/ompqL). ---

It’s a little bit different than occurs with me, the window that should stay in front, stay behind and invisible, but the “clicks” goes to it even I can not see. In version 0.9.21 it not occurs this problem, in version 0.9.26 i have this problem. ---

Look at this sample: It’s a delayed modal. It opens after 500msec. When you click the login button in the modal, the modal closes. It’s plenty fast. https://codepen.io/calendee/embed/preview/oCLJF?height=300&slug-hash=oCLJF&default-tabs=js,result&host=https://codepen.io Maybe fork it with your code so we can see the issue? ---

Not sure which resize problem you are referring to. Can you explain a bit more? ---

There were a few modal problems in 0.9.25 - which your demo uses. Actually, your demo worked fine in Chrome Canary but did not work properly in regular Google Chrome. See this updated example that uses 0.9.26. It works fine in both. https://codepen.io/calendee/embed/preview/LngKt?height=300&slug-hash=LngKt&default-tabs=html,result&host=https://codepen.io
