How to move the Android Google Maps API Compass Position

Question

Does anyone know if you can change the compass position within the map?

All I can find is how to enable or disable it. But I need to move it down a bit so my overlay

Answer 1

Padding-based solutions work for small offsets, but as far as I know there's no API exposed that allows us to robustly change the horizontal "gravity" of the compass from left to right like the stock Google Maps app does:

Note that if you applied a large amount of left padding to move the compass to the right in your own app, the Google logo in the bottom left would also be shifted over to the right.
