allowSwipeInChildren

If set to true, the swipe event will open the drawer even if the user begins the swipe on one of the drawer's children. This can be useful in scenarios where the drawer is partially visible. You can customize it further with a callback that determines which children the user can drag over to open the drawer (for example, to ignore other elements that handle touch move events, like sliders).

Type:func
| bool

Default:false


children

The content of the component.

Type:node


disableBackdropTransition

Disable the backdrop transition. This can improve the FPS on low-end devices.

Type:bool

Default:false


disableDiscovery

If true, touching the screen near the edge of the drawer will not slide in the drawer a bit to promote accidental discovery of the swipe gesture.

Type:bool

Default:false


disableSwipeToOpen

Type:bool

Default:typeof navigator !== 'undefined' && /iPad|iPhone|iPod/.test(navigator.userAgent)


hysteresis

Affects how far the drawer must be opened/closed to change its state. Specified as percent (0-1) of the width of the drawer

Type:number

Type:number

Default:450

Type:bool

Default:false


SwipeAreaProps

Type:object


swipeAreaWidth

The width of the left most (or right most) area in px that the drawer can be swiped open from.
