How to hide/show Drawer Items dynamically in jQuery

[Sara]

Hello,

I am trying to hide/show drawer items based on user rights. I was trying to make it work with data binding, since the loading of said user rights happens at runtime and after the first initialization of the drawer control. But I can't get it to work.

Here is a small example of what I am trying to do: https://jsfiddle.net/1rk4f9L6/11/

 

Any tipps? Is it even possible to use data-bind on a drawer item?

Hi,

Generally the Drawer is not a data-bound component and showing/hiding the items in the desired manner may be possible but only if used in a data-bound container. Is that the case? Can you provide an example of the real use of the drawer? If a binding container is not used I am afraid that the items should be hidden manually using JavaScript after the component is initialized.

Hi!

We do not use a data-bound container, sadly. It is very close to the fiddle with the drawer just inside a div pretty much without any other parent.

Thanks for the clarification! Will do it manually then.
