2 questions regarding configration

[ghost]

Hi! this plugin is nice and looks great when trying to turn nvim into an ide

however im confused about 2 things that people have in their screenshots that i cant seem to replicate:

1. how do i remove the line on the left of my editing buffer?
   ( this one, sorry for cam quality lmao:
   
   )

2. how do i make it so when i hit enter on a selected file, it automatically opens it in a new tab?

thanks for your help!

how do i remove the line on the left of my editing buffer?

That's out of nvim-tree's control, neovim itself controls window borders. See :help fillchars and :help WinSeparator.

how do i make it so when i hit enter on a selected file, it automatically opens it in a new tab?

Map enter to api.node.open.tab, see :help nvim-tree-mappings.

I strongly advise against doing that; vim is not an ide and vim tabs have a very different purpose. See #1598 for a full discussion.
