You have to create custom drawer for that like this

public class CustomDrawer extends DrawerLayout {



    public CustomDrawer(Context context) {
        super(context);

    }

    public CustomDrawer(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);

    }

    public CustomDrawer(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
        super(context, attrs);

    }

    @Override
    public boolean onInterceptTouchEvent(MotionEvent event) {
        if(isDrawerOpen(Gravity.START)){
            if(event.getX() > getChildAt(1).getWidth()){
                return false;
            }
        }
        return super.onInterceptTouchEvent(event);
    }

}

Note : getChildAt(1) should be that child to whom you have given gravity as "start" and whose width determines the width of opening drawer.

I hope this should solve your problem
