I do not understand what you are asking but no it wont change any styling, the check boxes are on/off (you can look at Extended Data Manager to see what controls what and if it is Boolean,Integer or text)
You can also emulate the functions using shortcodes.
The hide map until search will show a search form but without a map under it until someone enters whatever into the search form. At least it does on my site. I tested both Hide Map until search and show image until search, it also works in conjunction with the Results, Disable initial directory etc. If it is not behaving that way, please ensure your versions are updated and /or see if your theme is interfering in anyway or use the debugger. I have not seen any recent reports concerning the hide map function
