Remove boundaries BottomNavigationView for ripple effect

Question

I want the ripple effect to go beyond the bounds of the BottomNavigationView. How can i do this?

I have this xml:

<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
            android:id="@+id/nav_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="bottom"
            app:menu="@menu/bottom_nav_menu" />

Thanks in advance!

I found a solution.To assign Null value for the Bottom Navigation Instance at runtime. Please Try this,

xml:

<com.google.android.material.bottomnavigation.BottomNavigationView
            android:id="@+id/nav_view"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="bottom"
            android:background="@android:color/transparent"
            app:menu="@menu/bottom_nav_menu"
            android:elevation="0dp"/>

java:

BottomNavigationView navView = findViewById(R.id.nav_view);
navView.setBackground(null);

Happy Coding :)
