Research direction
The issue points to docs/android.gif but names no source file or test. Start by reviewing that example and the current Shimmer API and usage documentation; clarify whether the expected result is documented usage or a library change, then confirm completion with a reproducible multi-element row whose shimmer animation stays aligned.

Description
Hi,
first of all, thanks for this great library!
I would like to have multiple shimmers in a single row that have one consistent animation across the screen width, and not individual animations for each element. How can I achieve this?
