Is there any way to make the ModalDrawer pull out from the right side of the screen?

[Kevin Aude]

In the documentation they do mention specifically that the drawerContent is for Drawer sheet that can be pulled from the left side (right for RTL)

[Kevin Aude]

so I think you’d have to look at the scaffold code and pick the part relevant to the drawer in order to implement your own, if you want to get one on the other side

implement your own, if you want to get one on the other side

Ah, you mean I have to implement my own version of Drawer because they don’t support pulling out from thee right side?

[Kevin Aude]

I think so yes

As a dirty dirty hack you might be able to provide the LocalLayoutDirection as LayoutDirection.rtl for the ModalDrawer and then provide the proper LayoutDirection for the drawer content and children again

[jossiwolf]

I think there might be an issue for support for this already, but if you don't find one you should open one

Alternatively, pull out the relevant part from the Drawer as @Kevin Aude said
Something like
