Move the Join Party in Progress checkbox back to where it was

Please move the "join party in progress" checkbox back to the original location on the duty page. In this patch it was moved inside the settings page, which is an additional click. You also cannot easily see if the "in progress" box is checked, and additionally it doesn't save the state, as in it unchecks itself after you join a party or something, so you have to constantly go back to settings to see if it's on or not. I've queued several times already where I wanted to join in progress, thought it was already checked, but later on found that it became unchecked.

Putting it in the settings might increase "in progress" search times because people wouldn't bother to look for the checkbox anymore.

It's shown on the top bar above the main window (next to where the "settings" button now is). Admittedly, though, it's shown by icon so you need to learn what the setting icons are. (This one is a yellow arrow pointing to a blue party flag.)

This part I agree should be fixed.

Ah I didn't see the icons. However, the icons should just be little buttons that you can click on and off, and the gear would bring up the current screen showing the text that describes what each setting means.

A non-interactive settings bar is a questionable implementation. If there's going to be a separate settings bar, we shouldn't be forced to open a separate settings window to change the settings.

Better would be

With all the icons clickable for quick toggling of settings, including the language settings. The tooltip should be enough to tell us what the setting is, and then if people need further clarification, they can choose to open the settings window, as PotatoTree suggested.

Yes this is exactly what I was looking for. Devs, please implement this!

I hope they consider doing that - moving everything into one place is nice and all but I found it to be a huge inconvenience to not be able to click the join in progress like I used to.
