ContentDialog vs Menu Hamburger (SplitView)

Question

I have two elements in my project, ContentDialog & SplitView (Hamburger Menu). My ContentDialog has a button that lets you invoke the SplitView and put the IsPaneOpen = true, but when I do, the split view opens and is behind the ContentDialog.

Is there any way to put SplitView above ContentDialog without Dialog disappear?

I've tried placing the Canvas, but nothing worked.

Button code-behind:

 private void ButtonMenuClick(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            ((App)(App.Current)).HamburgerPage.ShowHamburgerMenu(sender, e);
        }

In page of Hamburger Menu:

 public void ShowHamburgerMenu(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (splitView.IsPaneOpen)
            {
                this.splitView.IsPaneOpen = false;
            }
            else
            {
                this.splitView.IsPaneOpen = true;
            }
        }

Edited! ButtonMenuClick is called when I click button to open pane of Hamburger menu, but ever content dialog is open and I need this still open. — fipcurren88, Sep 30 '15 at 12:21
I don't have any Z-index in both elements, it is by default. — fipcurren88, Sep 30 '15 at 13:58
Please add your *`Xaml` code* ...these c# codes aren't useful — Shahriar, Sep 30 '15 at 18:05
+ U can use : `splitView.IsPaneOpen=!(splitView.IsPaneOpen);` instead of if-else — Shahriar, Sep 30 '15 at 18:06
I don't think it can be done, because content dialog always appear on top of the page. — Bells, Oct 01 '15 at 04:14

Had a similar problem and not sure without code as Shahriar mentioned if this is going to help but I needed the hamburger menu to be seperate to the split view so here is my solution if it helps.
