Android - Spacing between CheckBox and text

Question

Is there an easy way to add padding between the checkbox in a CheckBox control, and the associated text?

I cannot just add leading spaces, because my label is multi-

Answer 1

Given @DougW response, what I do to manage version is simpler, I add to my checkbox view:

android:paddingLeft="@dimen/padding_checkbox"

where the dimen is found in two values folders:

values

    0dp

values-v17 (4.2 JellyBean)

    10dp

I have a custom check, use the dps to your best choice.
