Solution 1

From: https://github.com/ButchersBoy/MaterialDesignInXamlToolkit/wiki/Dialogs#dialoghostshow

var result = await DialogHost.Show(view, "RootDialog", ClosingEventHandler);

If you'd like a concrete example, check out the demo source:

Solution 2

Simply you can use this :

view.IsOpen = true;

Solution 3

You can set a Name to your DialogHost like: <materialDesign:DialogHost x:Name="MyDialogHost">.

And then in your XAML.CS file you can use the MyDialogHost.ShowDialog(...) method to show its content like:

private void MyButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
      MyDialogHost.ShowDialog(MyDialogHost.DialogContent);
}
