Keep Drawer Open

[Davin]

When in landscape mode, we would like to prevent the drawer from closing. But in portrait we would like to allow it to operate as usual. 

Adding an onHide then immediately calling .show() seems to fire to quick. Is there a better way to keep this open under certain conditions?

Hello Davin,

This behavior is in fact available as part of our Q3 release, currently in beta - but is part of the splitview widget. You can take a look at the following jsbin. In order to test the auto-collapse feature, please preview the results on a real device.

What I am trying to get done is having two types of views depending on the overall size of the device.

SplitView for tablet sized devices and Drawer for phone sized devices.

Is there a mechanism to use these conditionally, without having to publish two separate apps?

Hi Davin,

Please check this tutorial, which describes the necessary steps to build an "universal" app.

I think this will do, thank you.
