Change Google Map Offset Center

Question

I'm trying to set the user's location on the map so that it is about 1/3 of the way up from the bottom of the screen, and when the map rotates, it will rotate around this point.

The closest I managed to achieve was to use the setPadding() method, however, this causes the map to sort the jitter when turning, as the center point “floats” around where it really should be. It looks pretty ugly

 int mapHeight = mapView.getHeight(); googleMap.setPadding(0, mapHeight / 5, 0, 0); 

Is there a better way to do this?

Edit : explained in the image below.

You do not need gaskets

Change the values ​​of Mappoint X and Y as you need, you can call it wherever you want! may be inside your onLocationChanged as changeOffsetCenter(location.getLatitude(),location.getLongitude());

  public void changeOffsetCenter(double latitude,double longitude) { Point mappoint = mGoogleMap.getProjection().toScreenLocation(new LatLng(latitude, longitude)); mappoint.set(mappoint.x, mappoint.y-100); // change these values as you need , just hard coded a value if you want you can give it based on a ratio like using DisplayMetrics as well mGoogleMap.animateCamera(CameraUpdateFactory.newLatLng(mGoogleMap.getProjection().fromScreenLocation(mappoint))); } 

output:
