It's (-1) for both long and short orders I assume? The limit order would be sent one tick lower than the stop placement for longs and one tick higher for shorts?

Yes.

This setting will be for all limit orders entered on the chart, regardless of which pre-set target/stop group is selected in the trade window, correct? I would have to change this setting to switch to a different offset?

Yes. Refer to the Trading Configuration options here:
Basic Trading and the Trade Window: Using and Changing Between Different Trade Window and Attached Orders Configurations

I use chart order lines, and the appearance of the stop-limit order line doesn't change when triggered. Visually there's no way to see the limit order.

The only option for this is the following setting, which will draw a vertical line from the original Stop order position to where the Limit order is:
