Remove selection when clicked in tablayout

Question

How to turn off this highlight when you click a tab. I searched for half an hour and could not understand. I am using tablayout.

Answer 1

just set the background color to transparent or the background color to tablayout. Add the following code to the parent layout.

xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto" 

And add the following to the tablayout.

 app:tabBackground="?attr/colorPrimary" android:background="?attr/colorPrimary" 

This will solve your problem. Tested in Android M.

Answer 2

Add the following line to your XML:

 app:tabRippleColor="@android:color/transparent"
