Subject: [Okular-devel] [Bug 294520] New: Pressing F3 to search again searches from the last match, not the current page
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=294520

Summary: Pressing F3 to search again searches from the last
match, not the current page
Product: okular
Version: 0.14.80
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: okular-devel@xxxxxxx
ReportedBy: thiago@xxxxxxx


Version: 0.14.80 (using Devel)
OS: Linux

When you press F3 to search again for a string, Okular searches from the last
point where a match was found, instead of searching from the current page. This
can be quite annoying if you have changed pages (continued reading) after the
last match, as Okular will jump back to where you had been.

In most text editors, the Find Again feature finds from the current position.

Note that this feature is not related to the option "Find from current page"
being enabled. In fact, that feature is weird: where would it find from if not
the current page? The only other option is from the first page, which should be
the name of the feature.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a document in Okular with multiple pages (I've only tested PDF)
2. Ctrl+F and type a string that appears in many pages
3. Press Enter
4. Scroll down, making sure you end up at least one page after the next match
of the same string
5. Press F3

Actual Results:
Okular jumps back to the match that was skipped over

Expected Results:
Okular continues the search from the current view position

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 3.2.6-3.fc16.x86_64
Compiler: gcc
