How to hide tickmark of SeekBar when seeking?

Question

I want to design a custom Seekbar like the image below: desired seekbar

However, here is my output:

I have some problems. When I seek forward with SeekBar, the tickmarks yet still exists and I want to hide this. My other problem is two tickmarks are placed out of SeekBar. Also, I want to put the number of each step on the SeekBar, above the SeekBar. I tried the code below but only in onProgressChanged method is the correct position of the SeekBar obtained.

 private fun setNumber(){
    for(i in 0..10 step 2){
        var pos=i*(seekbar.width - 2 * seekbar.thumbOffset)/seekbar.max
        Log.e(TAG,"pos $i= $pos")
        when(i){
            0 -> {
                txt_label_zero.setX(seekbar.x + pos + seekbar.thumbOffset / 2)
            }
            2 -> {
                txt_label_two.setX(seekbar.x + pos + seekbar.thumbOffset / 2)
            }
            4 ->{
                txt_label_four.setX(seekbar.x + pos + seekbar.thumbOffset / 2)
            }
            6 ->{
                txt_label_six.setX(seekbar.x + pos + seekbar.thumbOffset / 2)
            }
            8 ->{
                txt_label_eight.setX(seekbar.x + pos + seekbar.thumbOffset / 2)
            }
            10 ->{
                txt_label_ten.setX(seekbar.x + pos + seekbar.thumbOffset / 2)
            }
        }

    }
}

private fun setSeekbar() {

    seekbar?.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(object : SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener {
        override fun onProgressChanged(seekBar: SeekBar, progress: Int, fromUser: Boolean) {

        }

        override fun onStartTrackingTouch(seekBar: SeekBar) {

        }

        override fun onStopTrackingTouch(seekBar: SeekBar) {


        }
    })
}

And here drawable and xml layout: drw_bg_seekbar:

You can extend AppCompatSeekBar, just override onDraw() method, and redraw everything:

I had to inspect:

https://github.com/aosp-mirror/platform_frameworks_base/blob/master/core/java/android/widget/AbsSeekBar.java

to figure out how things are drawn.

So, you need to draw

Drawing order is important:

Background
Tick Marks
Progress
Thumb

Drawing order is not important:

Values

Note: I had to separate SeekBar background and Progress Drawables in order to satisfy the drawing order above.

Note: I removed thumb shadow by using android:background="@null" (If thumb shadow is included, it will show up dislocated):

Remove SeekBar shadow
