Disable darker background when pulling down status bar - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

In CM10 and up, if i pull down status bar, the area under it is getting darker. CM9 does not have this effect and its status bar is much more responsible, so it follows my finger with almost no delay. So is there any way to turn this effect off?

Notification bar on the lock screen

So, since the status bar is accessible from the lock screen, my quick access toggles keep getting changed in my pocket.
I can't find any setting to turn off the status bar while on the lock screen.. Anyone have any idea of how to turn the status bar off while on the lock screen?
It's only ever been a hassle for me..

status bar clock in CM11 nightly

second silly question of the day for me
at some point in history i turned off the status bar clock just on the lock screen. well, now it annoys me and i want it back but i can't find the setting. i swear it used to be one of the clock options under status bar, "hide on lock screen" or something to that effect, but it's just gone.
even used the fancy shmancy settings search and turned up nothing. did it get moved someplace totally bizarre or possible it's an accidental loss from some framework update?

Status bar auto expand/scroll - touch animation - querry

Hi there
When you touch/click the statusbar on a Z2 it will automatically expand itself and hide the whole screen.
I find this very annoying, especially when using apps which have buttons close to the status bar -it often happens that the status bar expands accidentally and because the screen is large, I have to use my other hand to hide it or press the back button. Anyway...
Is there any option/app/way to disable this function? so that the status bar is only scrolled down when I fully grab it and scrol it down a bit, not only press it?

Notification getting obscured by notch

I don't mind the notch but having eaten some serious real estate, the notification icons does not seem to have enough space. On the left top bar, the network name is shown in full, then barely two more icons can fit in, the next new notification icons disappear under the notch. Hiding notch only changes the background colour so that does not help. Any ideas on this guys? Thanks.

Is it possible for the navigation bar on a Samsung S10+ to always be present?

More specifically, when I use VLC to watch a video, the navigation bar is minimized, and I have to tap the screen for it to re-appear. I was wondering if there was a way to always keep it in its position, where no app will minimize it. I have already installed the Nav Bar application to customize its colour and some of its behaviour. However, I can't seem to find a modification for the navigation bar to do exactly what I want. I want the navigation bar always to be present because I have dead pixels in the bottom left corner of the screen. By keeping the navigation bar black and always on, I will never notice the dead pixels.
