Hi
How can i remove left navigation bar completely in kibana 5

i don't think there is a way, except:

• creating a plugin which registers a hack and trys to manipulate this
• creating a plugin which adds some styles which will hide this
• change kibana source code

Hi
Which folders/files need to be modified ? I have installed kibana in centos 7 and the kibana installation directory is /usr/share/kibana

Can i ask what is the use case for this ? would dashboard in full screen mode solve it ?

when it comes to modifying kibana, i think you'll just have to dig in the source code on your own.
the navigation is in the src/ui/public/chrome/directives/global_nav.js
and the plugins documentation is here: https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/plugin-development.html
