goto-definition opens buffer in new tab

[rallyram]

I would be nice if one could configure opening a definition or implementation in a new tab instead of the current tab.

Is this possible currently?

Thanks!

Hey @rallyram thanks for the question! Technically, sure it's possible, but you'd probably have to hack it in yourself since I don't think there is a quick way to do it by default. The goto definition functionality is actually just part of Neovim, nvim-metals doesn't do anything specific with it, but forward it to Neovim. Check out :h lsp-handler and it'll give you an idea of how to override a handler (which is what the result of the definition is). You can see a short discussion about this here
