Research direction

Start by finding the Settings search implementation and the entry for Subtitle preview properties under Video player. Add “Alignment” as a search term for that setting, then check that searching for both “Alignment” and “Preview” finds it and that the setting still opens correctly.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I somehow caused all my subtitles to be aligned to the Bottom-Right and had trouble finding the setting to change it back to Bottom-Middle.

Since I often use right click > Alignment, I did a search for "Alignment" in Settings but nothing was found. Eventually chatGPT helped me find it by searching for "Preview" which brought me to the right place:

Subtitle Edit > Settings > Video player > Subtitle preview properties

I recommend adding "Alignment" as a search term in Settings
