title: how to completely remove tab indicator in an ActionBar
body: <p>I use an <code>ActionBar</code> in my <code>FragmentActivity</code> (min SDK = 14) and I need to remove the active Tab indicator (see picture below) since I have my own icons for indicating which Tab is active. I've been reading a lot of style-related stuff, found no solution however. Any suggestions how this indicator can be completely removed?</p>

  <p><strong>SOLVED</strong></p>
  
  <p>The working solution is below:</p>
  
  <pre><code>      &lt;style name="ActionBarTabStyle" parent="@android:style/Widget.Holo.ActionBar.TabView"&gt;
      &lt;item name="android:background"&gt;@android:color/transparent&lt;/item&gt;
  &lt;/style&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and then adding to the Activity style:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;item name="android:actionBarTabStyle"&gt;@style/ActionBarTabStyle&lt;/item&gt;
  </code></pre>
