Here\'s what I\'d like to remove :

How do I replace the indicator show

Answer 1

I have yet another hack.

    TabLayout tabLayout = (TabLayout) fragmentView.findViewById(R.id.tabs);
    tabLayout.setSelectedTabIndicatorHeight(0);

It's basically the same idea as Eleojasmil's.

Answer 2

Try setting the Tab indicator height to zero:

tabLayout.setSelectedTabIndicatorHeight(0);

Answer 3

Use

    tabLayout.setSelectedTabIndicator(null);

This will set the selected indicator drawable to null.

Answer 4

This line app:tabIndicatorHeight="0dp" solve the problem for me in xml

 <android.support.design.widget.TabLayout
        android:id="@+id/view_bottom_tabLayout"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:tabIndicatorHeight="0dp"             //this line
        app:tabGravity="fill"
        app:tabMode="fixed" />

Answer 5

Use tabLayout.setSelectedTabIndicator(0).

tabLayout.setSelectedTabIndicatorHeight(0) is now deprecated and tabLayout.setSelectedTabIndicatorColor(Color.TRANSPARENT) won't perform as well because it uses transparency.

Answer 6

For the best setting app:tabIndicatorHeight="0dp" worked for me.
