How to place close button of drawer layout such a way that ejecting half portion towards outside as seen in picture:

Answer 1

You'll need to use a overlay layout like Relativelayout

<RelativeLayout>

    <View
        android:layout_width="16dp"
        android:layout_height="16dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="48dp"(40 is height of view at top plus 8dp is half height of this own view)
        android:marginLeft="8dp" />

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:marginLeft="16dp">

        <View
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="40dp" />

        <View
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    </LinearLayout>

</RelativeLayout>
