Limit width of CardView

Is there a simple way of limiting the width of a CardView widget? On very large screens I want to keep space blank on either sides of the cards instead of stretching the card to make it extremely wide.

  • You should create alternative layout in layouts-w600dp dir, it will be used for big screens,

  • or you can set 

    android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/my_cardview_margin"
android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/my_cardview_margin"

    to your CardView

    and create dimen.xml in values dir and in values-w600dp dir with
    different value of my_cardview_margin

...-w600dp suffix means that it will be used when current screen width is greater or equal to 600 dp.
