Description:
Right now, the Style List sidebar panel feels disorganized, making it hard to understand how different controls affect the styles.

One major issue is the "#filter" control—it’s tucked away at the bottom, which makes it unclear that it actually filters the styles. Users might mistake it for just another option or even assume it only applies to the Spotlight checkbox above it. To avoid this confusion, the filter should be placed before the style list so it’s clear that it controls what’s being displayed.

Proposed Order (More Intuitive):
Toolbar – Top-level actions
Settings – Options like Show Previews and Spotlight
Filter Controls – Clearly positioned before the style list
TreeView/FlatView – Displays the filtered styles

Current Order (Causing Confusion):
Toolbar
TreeView/FlatView
Filter Controls
Settings


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open Libreoffice Writer
2.Click on the Styles icon on the left Sidebar
3.Notice the Style List Information Hierarchy 

Actual Results:
With the current setup, using the Style List panel can be confusing because the elements aren’t arranged in a logical flow.

Filtering feels disconnected because a user might not realize they can filter styles or assume the filter applies to something else (like the Spotlight checkbox).

Extra effort is required when scrolling through the list and not seeing what a user needs, they might not think to check a filter below the list.

Frustration and misuse as some users may ignore filtering altogether or believe the panel lacks filtering options

Expected Results:
The Style List panel should follow a more intuitive information hierarchy so that users naturally encounter controls in the right order.

A logical top down flow is Toolbar → Settings → Filter Controls → Style List as that would make navigation more intuitive, ensuring users see and use filters before browsing the list improving usability.
