           Summary: 'Continue search' display not consistent with 'Search'
                    one
           Product: KMail Mobile
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sabine at kdab.net


Version:           unspecified (using Devel) 
OS:                Linux

The 'Continue search' display result is not consistent with the 'Search'
display result.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
- Launch Kmail-mobile
- Click on 'Write new email'
- Enter a subject and a few lines of text in the Composer text editor (ex:
'Testing the search functionality in the Composer. Having fun testing a lot of
functionalities.'
- Open the 'Actions' tab
- Click on 'Edit'
- Click on 'Search'
- Enter 'test' in the line edit
- Click on the 'Find' button
- The tab closes
- The searched word is displayed in the composer
- Tap in the text editor once to make the full text reappear
- Open the 'Actions' tab again
- Click on 'Continue Search'

Actual Results:  
The result is displayed but like this: 'Testing the search functionality in the
Composer. |-        test functionality.

I guess that the |- symbol is there to show that there are some words missing
after the first sentence but it was not there when using the 'search'
functionality (ie could have been 'test       -|')

So this is not consistent with the way a search result is displayed (see better
display suggestion in bug #257290)

Expected Results:  
The 'Continue Search' result display should always be consistent.

Here again it may be better to simply highlight the next 'test' occurence.
