[4.3.10]: sidebarTemplate() method - sidebar template is injected on the right of content instead on the left

[piotrpog]

What happened?

Description

When i use $this->asCpScreen()->sidebarTemplate() method in the controller, sidebar template is injected on the right of content instead of the left side, like when i use {% block sidebar %} with regular control panel templates that are not rendered using asCpScreen.

Hi, thanks for reporting! I created a PR to fix this.

This is actually working as expected. sidebar in the CP screen context means the right-and sidebar, whether within a slideout modal, or a full edit page (as those two sidebars should generally be consistent).

We should probably introduce new leftSidebar functionality though.

Would be great if you added that. I wanted to switch my plugin control panel pages to asCpScreen so they work as standalone pages and also in slideouts, but right now i cannot use sidebar properly with this method.

@brandonkelly by the way - maybe there could be option for using asCpScreen for pages that are not a form that can be submitted? Because unless i omitted something, every page rendered this method has its content injected into form.

Added support for defining the pageSidebar, for Craft 4.5 (#13019).

Can you post a new discussion about that?

@brandonkelly thanks for adding this. althought i hoped it would get to 4.4.
