that way will be cool and user friendly.

Also having the option to either pan or zoom with the scroll wheel would be useful.
Description
After setting the padding on GoogleMap from the top to show the user location centered at the bottom of the screen, I would like to rotate and zoom around my location only, meaning that the Focal Point is always on my location. But after setting the padding, the center for rotating the camera is still the original center of the screen and not in the center of the new bounds.
What I would like to see is:
- As seen in the new MapBox API which has many features including all that Google Map API has to offer, is the method:
GoogleMap.getUiSettings().setFocalPoint(new PointF(pixelX, pixelY));
With this option set, all gestures(rotate, zoom and tilt) and moveCamera/animateCamera actions are centered around that pivot. If not set, then the default setting takes place.
It would be nice to have this feature in the API.
This issue has been reported by many users and we hope that in the near future it would be implemented. This is very important to the project we're working on at my company, otherwise Google Maps API v2 wouldn't be the best option.
We've used Google Maps API v2 and it helped us build magnificent successful apps that are on the market today. We appreciate all the work you've put into the development of this API and would love to see more in the future.
We hope that you can implement this soon.
Thank you.
