How to close the Drawer without Navigator.pop

[Donk3ys]

Im building a web app that uses both drawer and endDrawer in the same page.
Therefore i cant use the function Scaffold.of(ctx).openEndDrawer() or scaffoldKey.currentState.openEndDrawer() to close the Drawer or vice versa.

Im trying to use Navigator.pop(ctx) to close the drawer, but its not closing the Drawer as it should.

I dreaded this day will come.
I have no way of solving this right now. The drawer has a close method but it is not public.

I am going to look into this a bit more and see if I can finally solve this issue.

Thanks so much for the quick reply... You have build an awesome user friendly package here.
Its so strange to me that Flutter doesnt have a public method for closing drawers...

Oh I think I did find a solution !

Can you try this:

context.findRootAncestorStateOfType<DrawerControllerState>()?.close()

Disclaimer: findRootAncestorStateOfType should not be called a lot, it's ok for a button press but avoid calling it in a build method for example.

If this works I think you should use this. I have a lot of work right now so if that's ok for you I would rather not spend time fixing this right now.
