Bug ID: 501334
Summary: The KWrite "Find" textfield becomes empty when the
user jumps to the next or previous match
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version: 24.12.3
Platform: Flatpak
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kwrite
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: funkybom...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The search functionality in KWrite has a bug that makes the given search string
disappear when the user tries to go through the highlighted results.
I think that this bug has appeared in the last couple of minor releases.
This bug has been reproduced in both the official KWrite flatpak (from Flathub)
and also in the native Fedora rpm package.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a text file in KWrite
2. Press Ctrl+F to enable the search functionality. The "Find" textfield should
now appear at the bottom of the program.
3. Enter a string value to search for.
4. Click on the button "Up" ("Jump to previous match") or the button "Down"
("Jump to next match") next to the textfield.
OBSERVED RESULT
The string disappears from the textfield "Find". This is obviously a bug.
EXPECTED RESULT
The given string should remains in the textfield "Find".
