Bug ID: 501823
Summary: "Find" function yields no results as it only looks
after the cursor
Classification: Applications
Product: ghostwriter
Version: 24.12.3
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: megan.con...@kdemail.net
Reporter: sephiroth...@hotmail.it
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
using the "find" function yields no results if the matching words are before
the cursor. This is contrary to expectations as the find function should look
throughout the whole document, irrespective of where the cursor is: if I am
looking for something while writing, there is actually a significant chance
that it is going to be *before* the cursor, rather than after it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Write anything.
2. Without moving the cursor (i.e. having it at the end), use the "find"
function to look for a word you have previously written.
OBSERVED RESULT
No results are found.
EXPECTED RESULT
Results are found.
