Answer 1

Similar thing happened to me and I have solved using setTimeout.

Bootstrap is using the following timeout to complete showing:

c.TRANSITION_DURATION=300,c.BACKDROP_TRANSITION_DURATION=150,

So using more than 300 must work and for me 200 is working:

$('#myModal').on('show.bs.modal', function (e) {
    setTimeout(function(){
        //Do something if necessary
    }, 300);                        
})
