How to set full row section view for gridview?

Question

I have tried and worked for listview with section view between list items and it works fine for me . When I tried for gridview it is showing till the each item width not full row because obviously gridview comes with 2 or more items in a row .

So I want to make full row as section item between grid view items . I searched elsewhere before posting here so can anyone help me ??

Good question,I also need the answer. – Rizvan Jul 27 '15 at 02:31 — Rizvan, Jul 27 '15 at 02:31

I don't think you can do that with GridView widget because it works in terms of columns. You can hack it with adding 3 Views in a row if that will work for you, but it will have obvious drawbacks such as you won't be able to put a text there that will take more that 1/3 of the screen width.

Use RecyclerView vs StaggeredGridLayoutManager instead: http://enoent.fr/blog/2015/01/18/recyclerview-basics/

I know this answer implemented same but do recyclerview has a header and footer view?? – Rizvan Jul 27 '15 at 04:10
No, this is not a built-in functionality for `RecyclerView`. You can do that manually by adding a new view type. – Gennadii Saprykin Jul 27 '15 at 04:16
