Shrink status bar (change DPI) - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

I'm wondering how I could change the DPI of just my status bar. I really like the sharper look of a slightly thinner status bar but I don't want to lower the DPI of my entire homescreen because it makes some things, like icons and widgets, too small. I have been using the xposed framework to adjust the DPIs of specific applications but I don't know if there is something in that list of packages that is the status bar.
How can I just change the DPI of my status bar? Or even just adjust the width of it?
Thanks!

Smaller font in notification bar?

Is it possible to modify the notification bar font such that you can fit more? We have this nice large screen and the stock configuration just fills everything up if you have a few apps such as gentle alarm, task manager, quick settings...

[android8.0] change navigation bar color and set "global" wallpaper

Hi all,
I am currently modding Android8.0 and I need to set to transparent my navigation bar (always) and to set a global wallpaper/background.
I know that every application is able to set the navigation bar color with:
<item name="android:navigationBarColor" tools:targetApi="21">@android:color/transparent</item>​
but maybe there is a more simple way to do it... When the navigation bar is set to transparent I see a white color (I guess a default one) behind my home which is not a Launcher but it's is just the SystemUI.
How can I set another color or an image behind my SystemUI ?

[Question] Is it possible to modify the status/notification bar to be double height

I find the notch notification area unsatisfactory and kinda wanna restore a classic android feeling, I couldn't find any android theme or framework settings that gives me 2 rows of notifications. See my mockup for the idea, but basically I'd like to have a way to enable a second row of notifications that show icons you'd normally see in the horizontal view.
Any suggestions on how to accomplish this?

Resizing Icons

I have my screen grid set to the largest it can be (12x12) in order to position my widgets as granular as possible. Of course this makes any app icons on the homescreens very small. There is an option to resize the icons in the settings under Home Screen, but it won't let me increase the icons above a certain level (right now it's 97%, but I've seen it as low as 72%). But even setting the icon size as high as it will go doesn't seem to affect the homescreen icons; they're still very small, definitely not even close to the icon size in the dock. I've been using Giganticon as a work-around to make the icons as big as I want, but this naturally doesn't work with notification badges. Is there a way to override the artificial limits on the Nova settings to increase the icon size?
