Search settings UI could be more intuitive #102

I've noticed multiple streamers having the same problems with the RMC search settings menu.

They don't notice that "use these parameters" is a checkbox and they need to select it.

If they're new to RMC, they don't know that there is a length filter by default, and they need to set their own length filter if they want to keep it.

If they're not tech-savvy, they don't know what "tag inclusive search" means.

what do you propose as a solution to these?

TMX has an explanation when hovering over "tag inclusive search". The length filter could be set to the standard RMC value by default (3 minutes). And to stay consistent, the tag filter needs to do the same (exclude kacky by default). For the checkbox, I don't know any solution that doesn't impair the current functionality. Best I have is making the parameter settings uneditable (grayed out) when the checkbox is unchecked.
