Android TableLayout just above center

How would one go about making a TableLayout centered just above the center of the parent?

Currently I'm using android:layout_gravity="center" which is putting the layout exactly in the center. I've tried playing around with padding, but I couldn't find a solution.

I would like to have it above the center by about 10 dp.

Thanks in advance!

Take an invisible view in center of parent, and make your tableview align above that view with required margin at bottom like below. You can apply negitive margin also.

 <View
    android:id="@+id/centerView"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="1dp"
    android:layout_centerInParent="true"
    android:visibility="invisible" />

<TableLayout
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_above="@+id/centerView"
    android:layout_marginBottom="10dp"
    android:background="#ff0000">
.....
</TableLayout>

Use layout_centerVertical="true" instead of the gravity.

Then increase the size of your layout and use the paddingBottom to push your layout a bit on the top.
