I want to add a sidebar to my app, that slides in. I have chosen a Drawer element but I don't know how to control the width of this element. Here is a code snipped:

Drawer {
    id: rightMenu

    anchors.fill: rotationItem
    dock: Dock.Right

    background: Rectangle {
        anchors.fill: parent
        color: Theme.highlightDimmerColor

        SilicaListView {
            anchors.bottom: parent.bottom
            anchors.left: parent.left
            anchors.right: parent.right
            ...
        }
    }
}

When the Drawer item opens, the contents of the page are darkened and the sidebar opens with a light background. Therefore I have to insert the Rectangle element with an even darker background color. If I reduce the width on the first layer, the sidebar gets smaller and the page is no longer completely darkened. If I change the width of the second layer, the width of the sidebar remains unchanged.

I played araound with the backgroundSize property. But I don't know an appropriate value. The side wasn't visible at all, if I set any value.

Whatever I try: The width of the drawer is about the half of the screen width.

Any ideas?

I don't know for sure, but a quick google lead to a Qt page with an example showing width settings;

@Edz this is Silica Drawer for sure, not Controls.2 https://sailfishos.org/develop/docs/silica/qml-sailfishsilica-sailfish-silica-drawer.html/

noted @coderus, I was grabbing at straws without researching, it was more of an assumption that width might be controlled in the same manner.

Thanks for the code example. Modifying the width of the SilicaListView of the background has no impact. This is what I mean. I can't find a way to control the drawer width:

 background: SilicaListView {
        height: parent.height
        width: page.width * 0.66

I realized, that width can only be defined for a DockedPanel. An alternative approach is to construct something with a Rectangle and NumberAnimation.

Rectangle {
    id: sidebar
    anchors.bottom: parent.bottom
    anchors.right: parent.right
    width: 0
    height: parent.height
    color: Theme.darkPrimaryColor
    ...
    Behavior on width { NumberAnimation { duration: 500 } }
}
