How to create subfolder with supporting different screen sizes?

Question

First of all I know how to create subfolder when I have only one Layout. That is not the issue. The issue is that I cannot create subfolders under
layout-sw320dp layout-sw480dp layout-sw600dp layout-sw720dp

Because the layout file names are same in these folders it gives duplicate resource names. I want to create subfolder in these so How can I do it?

NOTE: Some "Smart" people things this is a typical subfolder question but it is not. So dont mark this question as duplicate question.

Why did you create sub-folder in layout?

simply create folder according to screen size and place layout which vary according to screen size say,a layout name activity_main.xml

place it in

-layout:activity_main.xml -layout-sw320pd:activity_main.xml ... .... .. so on

If it say duplicate resource ignore that warning because Android itself supporting switching of layouts.

The answer is that after you have done your subcategories under that you can actually do layout-sw320dp, layout-sw480dp etc. This question was not duplicate and it was unique.
