Hello everyone!
I managed to isolate the methods that allow controlling screen brightness by sliding over the status bar from GravityBox.
You can view the extracted code here: pastebin.com/ QtYB2NGT
Could someone give a hint on how to compile this as an individual module?
GB is excellent, and this feature works perfectly; but a huge module often collides with others.
Thanks in advance!

I'd check the development tutorial to get started.

Thanks! It baffles me a little, but guess I just need to try harder.

I've searched but wasn't able to find anything. I'd like to move the status bar to the top, but I can't find the setting to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

you can increase the density to make that happen. it worked for me when i changed to 240

When you changed it to the top, how did it affect the app drawer button?

Thanks for the thought, but it didn't work for me. It bunched the icons close together and the status bar went away.
It's an Alpha, so I'm sure an update will be out soon (I hope... ).
is there any way to hide the "honeycomb" status bar? I'd like to hide it when i read PDFs or playing games.

Supposedly, it's not possible to completely hide it, or so says the author of the Honeybar app.
*** Important note for ICS users: Honeybar is unsupported on ICS and will not hide the UI bar. I have examined the source for ActivityManagerService and it currently appears impossible to stop com.android.systemui

What a shame, using splashtop on my touchpad has become much more difficult due to the taskbar.
its there because that's where the menu and home and whatnot buttons are

Thanks, that's good information, but it just turns the status bar off. I want to move it to the top of the screen.

BTW, that tool, HoneyBar, doesnt work with ICS, you need to have a "special" service.jar file to be able to shutdown the SystemUI service "forever"
This ever get added as an option?

I think, from my understanding, the OP (and I) wanted to know how to move the status bar to the top of the tablet instead of having it on the bottom... not just hiding it.
Thanks though!

Yes! And I still haven't found out how to do it, if possible at all.
I'm on AOSP (paranoidandroid CM9) in tablet mode, and what I find most annoying is the notification bar...to access the toggles you have to click one time to make the notifications appear, and a second time to access the toggles...is there a way to make the whole thing appear with one touch ?
Using stock AOSP - there is no way to do this. You need 3rd party mods.
Thanks for the answer..I don't know how the guys at google thought it would be a good idea to do it this way.

True, especially that it's a tablet UI which means...lots of space on the screen.
Hello I have a galaxy tab s2 t810 running lollipop 5.1.1 It is rooted .I want to remove the add user icon from the notification bar. When the screen is locked anybody can pull down the notification bar click on users and then create a new user by clicking on add user. I want to remove only the add user icon please point me in the right direction. I have looked in settings under lock screen and there is no option to turn this off. Thanks

Agreed
Wow, I can't believe there is still no information anywhere about this. I would really like to know the answer as well. I imagine a lot of people are the sole users of their devices and do not want anyone who picks up their device to be able to create a new account, change settings and download apps. I encrypt my devices and know my information is secure but if I want to add a user I can do it from the settings once I'm logged in. I would love the ability to remove the option from the lock screen. I just don't get whoever thought this was a good idea but apparently most people either don't mind, don't care or as I suspect, don't realize it's there. This option should be available for unrooted devices as well.
Check this out. Maybe this is what you need.

Thanks "add fw.max_users=1 in build.prop and restart the device" works great!!
Thanks for the quick reply it itandy! I will give this a shot.

I did that and it worked but there is still the icon for 'setting' in the lockscreen pulldown and clicking on it bypass the lockscreen. Can I get rid of that icon too?
I updated to tab s2 to nougat. I was expecting the add user option could be customised to disable it completely but it is still the same.
I want to remove add guest and add user completely from the notification. How do I make this happen ?

Hi !
Still looking for a solution on this one. Any body successful ? It feels so helpless when some one can simply open your device using add user in notification !

Here, ?
fw.max_users=1
fw.show_multiuserui=0

This goes to end of build.prop (if not already added)
This disables addition/changing of user from settings app/status bar.
Please hit "Thanks" below ?

Do i need my phone to be rooted??
Hey guys,
First of all I wanna say I love Gravitybox, but there is 1 bug that has prevented me over the years from using it. The bug is present on multiple phones and the latest version of Gravitybox.
As you can see in the 2 screenshots that I attached, there seems to be a space between the battery percentage and the signal Icon. Its present on multiple themes and even if I put the clock on normal right side, there will be a space between the clock/battery and the signal strength. This bug is particularly annoying not just because it looks bad, but it causes the icons to run into the middle clock/date and overlap. This bug happens as soon as I activate Gravitybox without even touching any settings. I have looked and played with the settings but nothing fixes it. I'm not running any other status bar mod, just CM13.
Can anyone help me fix this issue so that I can enjoy Gravitybox the way it should be?
CM is not compatible with GB, and flaws are guaranteed, see the first post of the GB thread
try disabling clock in your rom settings otherwise turn off clock in gravity box and reboot.

Sure: ask for help in the GravityBox thread here on XDA.
I know some people are looking for this. I have been searching through a lot of posts and found some Apk's that didn't work or worked through the Samsung theme blaba. I found one that works without too much trouble, install and reboot! Sometimes it will ask to be Uninstalled when you delete a app. Just click cancel, sorry for original maker but I cannot find the post where I found the Apk.
Make sure to have an alternate way of navigating before installing!

I love the concept but long home press stops working, and alternatives to the nav bar dont work in secure mode.
Does any one know of a working navbar height reducer?
I have tried a few apk's that were working on S8+ but they have no effect on Note 8.
Thanks in advance
**Edit**
Found one
What I'd prefer is the ability to see my nav icons only across the entire system, across all apps, but make the background of the nav bar transparent. Using no themes. Stock. Does that make sense? Things are transparent whilst I'm on the home screen, naturally. So that's not an issue. But across all apps? That's what I'd LOVE to have.

Are you using the one in the link in the OP? I am but it seems like its touch sensitivity is off. I find myself dang here mashing the buttons just to get it to work.

I believe both of those are the same because I am having the same issue. I think the problem is my fingers are too fat to properly hit those smaller icons. :silly:
Probably.
Have you tried reducing the DPI in developer options?
This also has the effect of reducing nav bar size.

That was a long time ago. I currently have it set up as follows.
You can see the height of the nav bar in one of the screen shots.
