Android, is it possible to animate TextView.setGravity()?

Question

I have a situation where I would like to programmatically change the gravity of my text view (Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL|Gravity.BOTTOM to Gravity.START|Gravity.BOTTOM). Currently I'm using the setGravity() method, but I'm wondering if there is anyway to set this to smoothly transition over to the new position rather than just jumping to the new discrete position.

Thanks, Hugh

Better use Translation Animation if you are looking for smooth animation — Jibran Khan, Oct 30 '14 at 14:58
Adding animation on Gravity change is not supported intrinsically by AOSP, however there is always a way arround — Parth Kapoor, Oct 30 '14 at 14:58

I ended up re-organizing my layout leaving the problem moot. Still not a solution to what I was asking though.
