Hello, I would like to suggest changing the "Settings" (Tixati Preferences) option:
*Make the "Layout/Interface Settings" inserted into the Settings button, AND make Settings option an option into that with the text Tixati Preferences, that opens it.
This would make the button "Settings" an list of layout settings, and lastly the "Tixati Preferences" option.

Thus makes the layout config visible first, and lastly the Tixati Preferences, removing the need to have two buttons that are the same part of the user preference configuration.

Second, and defaults (idk the defaults)
*Make, change the text "Text Filter" to "Search (Text Filter)"
*Make the "Search (Text Filter)" option enabled by default.
*Make the "sortable view" as default.
*Make the "category tabs" visible as default.
*Make "encrypted preferred" as default (network noobs will never know what is traffic shaping).
