Stylesheet violation pressable error: "pointerEvents" is not a valid style property – React native

I need to solve this error:

Invariant Violation: "pointerEvents" is not a valid style property.
StyleSheet pressable: {
  "flex": 1,
  "pointerEvents": "auto"
}

There is no pressable, pointerEvents if I try to find it globally. There is none of it in any file.

Another error is :

Error: Requiring module "node_modules/@react-navigation/drawer/src/views/modern/Drawer.tsx",
which threw an exception: Invariant Violation: "pointerEvents" is not a valid style property.

Things I’ve done :

1.Reinstall Mac, start from factory setting

2.Reinstall simulator

3.Creating new react-native app which is fine and shows no error like this

4.It shows stylesheet pressable , but there is no "pressable" style on stylesheet , there are <pressable></pressable> and I changed it to <button>, nothing changes it still shows the same error

5.Recreating the error with creating :

    const styles = StyleSheet.create({
       pressable : {
         pointerEvents:'NONNEEEE'
       }
    })

it does create the same error. But still can’t find any pointerEvents class / style / components

  1. Reinstalling React navigation, drawer nothing changes

    Use pointerEvents property on the tag element instead of CSS stylesheet

      <View style={styles.pressable} pointerEvents={'none'}> 
    your content
  </View>

    For me lowering @react-navigation/drawer version to v6.5.0 fixed my problem.

    I’ve been struggling with same error for hours. Contributers released new patch few days ago @react-navigation/drawer v6.5.7. But I haven’t found any patch note about changing Drawer.tsx file.

    Also you can double check your navigation components. Maybe one of your components returned null or doesn’t have default export.

    I had the same problem. To not stay block, I open the file and commented the line with pointerEvents.
