I have a window in my _Layout.cshtml which I have initially set to visible="false". When I load or refresh the main page, I get a flickering, such that you can momentarily see the window text and button. I'm using a tag helper if that makes any difference.
The following is the _Layout.cshml file. The rest of the solution is just the standard Telerik ASP.Net Core template using ASP.Net Core 2019.2.514 controls on .Net Core 2.2.

Hello Daniel,
This behavior is known as Flash of unstyled content. It has been discussed in the forums before, see Alexander's post in the linked thread for more details.
Following the suggesting for hiding the respective elements on load and showing them at a later point you can:
1. Wrap the Window's content in a div element that has a custom class or an id that can be used as a selector, for example:
2. Make that div invisible initially:
3. Handle the Window's open event and make the content visible when the Window opens:
Give this approach a try and let us know whether it successfully works around the issue.
