Android - LinearLayout Horizontal with wrapping children

Question

Is there a property to set for Android's LinearLayout that will enable it to properly wrap child controls?

Meaning - I have changeable number of children and would like to lay out them horizontally like:

Example: Control1, Control2, Control3, ...

I do that by setting:

ll.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
foreach (Child c in children)
  ll.addView(c);

However, if I have large number of children, last one gets cuts off, instead of going to next line.

Any idea how this can be fixed?

As of May 2016 Google has created its own FlexBoxLayout which should solve your problem.
