How to remove material entry underline?

Answer 1

1. Create a dimension resource (Add a new .xml file and save it under your Android project in Resources\values)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources> 
<dimen name="box_stroke_dim">0dp</dimen>
</resources>

2. Custom renderer implementation for every Entry with Visual="Material"

[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(Entry), typeof(App.Droid.MyMaterialEntryRenderer),
            new[] { typeof(VisualMarker.MaterialVisual) })]

namespace App.Droid
{
    public class MyMaterialEntryRenderer : MaterialEntryRenderer
    {
        public MyMaterialEntryRenderer(Context context) : base(context)
        {
        }

        protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Entry> e)
        {
            base.OnElementChanged(e);

            Control?.SetBoxStrokeWidthResource(Resource.Dimension.box_stroke_dim);
            Control?.SetBoxStrokeWidthFocusedResource(Resource.Dimension.box_stroke_dim);
        }
    }
}
