Is there a way to implement rounded corners to a Mapfragment?

Question

I want to give the map a nice looking rounded corners as the two boxes below it have. I can\'t do it with the map fragment it self because there is not a background property

I haven't tried this, but I'd put a view with rounded corners and a transparent middle on top of the mapView / mapFragment.

That is, put the mapFragment and the rounded corner view in a FrameLayout with both filling the FrameLayout, then make the middle of the rounded corner view transparent.

For further clarification, you could do it in a layout as follows:-

The rounded_background is a 9-patch with rounded corners and a transparent middle. E.g.
