That sounds like a reasonable request.  I added a bug report for it:

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [Paraview] Solved: What happened to the random controls 
for Mask Points filter?

Does anyone know if there's a way to have the gear button enabled by default?  
I would like it if there was a persistent setting "Show Advanced Options" that 
I could toggle on so I don't have to click the gear so much...

In my vis class, I have always had the students use the Mask Points filter 
separately from the Glyph filter because it had the extra controls that let you 
select random sampling.  With "On Ratio", I get a regular grid of samples that 
aliases with the underlying grid pattern.  But these controls don't show up in 
ParaView 3.98, only "On Ratio" and "Maximum Number of Points."  Wait... there 
is a gear icon and when I push it more options show up.  Way to go, Paraview 
team!

I figured I'd go ahead and send this post anyway, since many people may want to 
know about the option to bring up additional controls.
