Hide lightline for MiniBufExplorer

Question

Is there any way to do not show status line (I am using lightline) for some windows - MiniBufExplorer or NERDTree ?

Answer 1

You can locally clear the 'statusline' setting (am empty value will bring up the default, but you can choose just the background color group to make it effectively disappear):

:setlocal statusline=%#Normal#

To apply that automatically to MiniBufExpl windows, you can use an :autocmd, either based on the characteristic buffer name (BufWinEnter event), or if the plugin sets a 'filetype', on the FileType event.
