ionic-framework: bug: $ionicConfig.views.swipeBackEnabled does not work

ionic bundle version v1.1.0

Since #3470 is closed, I’m opening a new one.

I have the following code (that I believe should be the default on iOS, but whatever) :

$scope.$watch(function () { return $ionicSideMenuDelegate.isOpenRight(); }, function (isOpen) {
  if (isOpen){
    $ionicConfig.views.swipeBackEnabled(false);
  } else {
    $ionicConfig.views.swipeBackEnabled(true);
  }
});

This code simply disables the swipe to go back when the right side menu is opened. Why is this needed ? Because the user closes the side menu with a swipe (or a more slow drag and drop (btw that feature is awesome)) that also goes back in the history.

Unfortunately, $ionicConfig.views.swipeBackEnabled(true/false); is not working 😢

Some steps to reproduce :

• platform : iOS
• ionic version v1.1.0
• ionic app with a ion-side-menu side="right" and a ion-nav-view
• users navigates to a sub route (let’s say from route “foo” to route “foo.bar” in the ion-nav-view)
• users opens the right side-menu
• users slowly swipes from left ro right
• Bug : the right menu closes AND the view navigates back

Is that clear enough ? I can make a video since it’s pretty specific, if necessary. I understand describing an animation/user-interaction bug is hard.

Regards
