LinearLayoutManager implementation that stretches to fit all list items on screen and disables scrolling. Useful for dashboards etc.

@rajeshdeva23 You shouldn't use this layout manager for scrollable lists. It is intended only for lists that should fit on one page, as stated in the Gist description.

This saved my life ... Thanks you so much.

Hi this is great!

But I want to use it only when my all items width is less than the screen width. Otherwise, I want my items to be scrollable.

Is there a way to achieve this?

@mianaliasjad I would just change the layout manager based on the screen width. That should be easier than to write two layout managers at once.
