Question

How to add margin top to class=\"row\" elements using twitter bootstrap framework?

Answer 1

Sometimes margin-top can causes design problems:

So, i recommend create "margin-bottom classes" instead of "margin-top classes" and apply them to the previous item.

If you are using Bootstrap importing LESS Bootstrap files try to define the margin-bottom classes with proportional Bootstrap Theme spaces:

.margin-bottom-xs {margin-bottom: ceil(@line-height-computed / 4);}  
.margin-bottom-sm {margin-bottom: ceil(@line-height-computed / 2);} 
.margin-bottom-md {margin-bottom: @line-height-computed;}
.margin-bottom-lg {margin-bottom: ceil(@line-height-computed * 2);}
