android - Remove shadow below actionbar

Question

I use actionbarsherlock. The piece of code below is responsible for changing it's background to a custom one.

<style name="Widget.Styled.ActionBar" parent="Widget.Sherlock.ActionBar">
    <item name="background">@drawable/actionbar_bg</item>
    <item name="android:background">@drawable/actionbar_bg</item>
    <...>  
</style>

<style name="Theme.MyApp" parent="@style/Theme.Sherlock.Light">
    <item name="actionBarStyle">@style/Widget.Styled.ActionBar</item>
    <item name="android:actionBarStyle">@style/Widget.Styled.ActionBar</item>
    <..>
</style>

And it works for actionbarsherlock (on versions below honeycomb). But in ICS I have a shadow below actionbar which I don't want. What is the style item to make it disappear?

Answer 1

What is the style item to make it disappear?

In order to remove the shadow add this to your app theme:

<style name="MyAppTheme" parent="android:Theme.Holo.Light">
    <item name="android:windowContentOverlay">@null</item>
</style>

UPDATE: As @Quinny898 stated, on Android 5.0 this has changed, you have to call setElevation(0) on your action bar. Note that if you're using the support library you must call it to that like so:

getSupportActionBar().setElevation(0);
