navigationDrawerController?.toggleLeftView() does not work when navigationDrawer is not rootViewController

[varijkapil13]

I am building navigationDrawerController with tabsController. And in the application not all view controller require the navigation drawer, there I only assign navigation drawer to the view that requires it. It works fine when the tabsController is set as window root, but when I transition to tabsController via a navigationController push method (UINavigationController or Material) from another roortViewController, example a login screen, the navigationDrawerController?.toggleLeftView() code in the menu button handler does not open the navigationDrawer. However, sliding from left opens the drawer.

Login View Controller (when login is done, I want to go to the tabsController with the navigationDrawer)

Menu Button handler

Hey :) Is your handleMenuButton in a view controller that is being removed once you push your new view controllers? If that is the case, then the function handler may be out of scope causing the issue. I would need to look at your project to confirm this.

Hey :) handleMenuButton is in the new view controller that is being pushed. it is in the startegyViewController that I have in the DrawerController and then in TabsController (See second screenshot). It gets fired whenever I click on the menu button, but nothing happens except the ripple effect on the button.

Unfortunately I cannot put the project on GitHub, I can email you the relevant files if you want :)

[daniel-jonathan]

Yes, please email me the project at [email protected] :) It would be easier. Once I am done giving you help, I delete all materials you sent.

Thank you! Sent! :)

[daniel-jonathan]

Great! I will take a look shortly :)

@DanielDahan I confirm that this issue no longer persists after Material 2.13.4. It was fixed when you fix #1016 in cf88010
