[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
So my question is how can I add space between the toggles & the notifications?

I removed the brightness slider on purpose, b/c I use Lux, but in doing so it moved the notifications all the way up, with no "buffer" between the two.

Below, is my systemui\res\layout\tw_status_bar_expanded.xml which is the only thing that I edited; the blue part specifically what was edited to remove the brightness slider.

Thanks for your help.
