[3.3.x] Styles Support & Discussion • Re: nav tab icon

Don't think such thing exist but it should not be hard to remove/hide an icon but we need to see the code for that Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view.

Okay this can be re-created in a number of ways with different tabs. (I'm embarrassed to say how many hours I've lost to this one "simple" thing.)

Here is a vanilla example.

In the file template/navbar_header.html:

<li id="cattab1" class="dropdown-container" title="Detail">
<a href="#" class="dropdown-trigger"><span>New Tab</span></a>
<div class="dropdown">
<div class="pointer"><div class="pointer-inner"></div></div>
<ul class="dropdown-contents" role="menu">
...

Still displays a chevron or angle icon on the tab.


Here's what it looks like

And zoomed so you can see the icon. It's an angle or chevron.

The browser inspector shows html as this:

<a href="#" class="dropdown-trigger dropdown-toggle nav-link"><span>Detail</span></a>

instead of what navbar_header.html says, which (as above) says.

<a href="#" class="dropdown-trigger"><span>New Tab</span></a>

---

And the browser inspector shows css as this:

.navbar .nav-tabs .nav-link.dropdown-toggle:before {
content: '';
font-family: FontAwesome;
position: absolute;
right: 12px;
top: 50%;
font-size: 8px;
line-height: 12px;
width: 8px;
height: 12px;
margin-top: -6px;


So the question is.... does a nav tab dropdown class exist that doesn't automatically call an icon?

Am I asking the wrong question? I'd really just like that icon to disappear from the new tab.

(Yes I've searched for those icon names - chevron and angle - and they only seem to exist in "assets/css/font-awesome.min.css" (and in template pages that wouldn't be involved with the nav header) and removing them doesn't help. Yes I've purged the cache and browser cookies.)
