Shopify Dawn theme navigation change request: show a submenu to the right when clicking a main item (e.g., “Fruits”). The author shared store URL and password, plus screenshots illustrating current vs. desired behavior (images are central to understanding the layout goal).
Suggested setting: Online Store → Themes → Customize → Header → Desktop menu type → set to “Drawer.” This switches desktop navigation to a vertical, mobile-style drawer (off‑canvas panel).
Limitations noted: Dawn’s built-in options are limited; the drawer may not produce a right-side submenu exactly as desired. Achieving that specific interaction likely requires custom CSS/Liquid development beyond theme settings.
Outcome/status: A built-in workaround (Drawer) was provided, but it may not fully match the requested right-side submenu behavior. Further customization is implied; no confirmation of resolution from the original poster, so the thread appears open.

currently my menu is look like this.
but i would like to open my menu like this
Go to Online Store → Themes → Customize → Header → and on Desktop Menu Type field → Change that to Drawer.
That makes it vertical as how it appears on mobile.
Unfortunately, if you want your design changed after you do this and you don’t like it still, Dawn theme is limited to that.
If you need design changes after the fact, please send me DM or email (listed below) so I can help you on getting your design exactly how you want it to be.
Hope this helps.
