How to open navigation of record detail page in new window

Hi I am using force:navigateTosObject.

  
createRecord : function (component, event, helper) {
        var navEvt = $A.get("e.force:navigateToSObject");
        var recordId = event.target.id;
        navEvt.setParams({
            "recordId": recordId,
            "slideDevName": "detail"
        });
        navEvt.fire();
    }

I want to open this navigaton in a new window. But my code is opening in the same window.
I searched in google but I didn't find any solution for this. Please help me with this.

Hi Tulasiram,

Greetings to you!

According to Salesforce doc: https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/component-library/bundle/force:navigateToSObject/documentation
We recommend using lightning:navigation component with the standard__recordPage page type instead.

Component: 
<lightning:navigation aura:id="navService"/>

Controller: 
//call your method/action
onClick: function(cmp, event, helper){
    var navService = cmp.find("navService");
    var pageReference = {    
       "type": "standard__recordPage", //example for opening a record page, see bottom for other supported types
       "attributes": {
       "recordId": recordId, //place your record id here that you wish to open
       "actionName": "view"
        }
    }

    navService.generateUrl(pageReference)
    .then($A.getCallback(function(url) {
      console.log('success: ' + url); //you can also set the url to an aura attribute if you wish
      window.open(url,'_blank'); //this opens your page in a seperate tab here
    }), 
    $A.getCallback(function(error) {
      console.log('error: ' + error);
    }));
}
