Have you tried with showMenu variable?
App.Width * If(showMenu,0.5,0.1)

You can do something like this
1. Create a Output Property for Component

Then set write this code on that Output Property
If(showMenu,App.Width,HamburgerHorizontal.Width)
Now, write this on Width of Component

ComponentName.MenuWidth

@SanshubhLubal I tried this but did not work, where the component library will always occupy the same width, regardless if the icons are shown or not, as follow:-

here is the MenuWidth formula i have:-

and the width of the component :-

this will work on the component library app itself, but will not work when adding the component library inside a canvas app.. any idea?
