If you tried resizing your app while in multi-window mode, you’d notice that the onMultiWindowModeChanged() function doesn’t trigger on every resize.

  override fun onConfigurationChanged(newConfig: Configuration) {
    super.onConfigurationChanged(newConfig)

    val newHeight = newConfig.screenHeightDp


  }
    if (isInMultiWindowMode && newHeight < 270) {
      binding.notes.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this, LinearLayoutManager.HORIZONTAL, false)
    } else {
      binding.notes.layoutManager = LinearLayoutManager(this)
    }
