Hi,
FindControl is very bad solution - user can remove this control, copy to some toolbar etc. Use Update handlers or Actions.
 
See Actions sample.

I'm using CommandBars->FindControl( xtpControlButton, menuItemID, FALSE, TRUE ); to locate a hidden CXTPControl* and then calling SetVisible member of the CXTPControl to show it.
 
I have confirmed (debugger step throughs and asserts) I'm finding the pointer to the control just fine everytime, but sometimes when I call SetVisible( TRUE ) the control stays hidden.  I know the call is being made with the TRUE parameter but the control remains hidden - sometimes but not always .
 
Is there something else I need call after SetVisible to force a control, menu, interface, etc. to update?
 
Thanks!
