            Bug ID: 496270
           Summary: Highlight every found match: move feature from
                    thumbnail searchbar to main searchbar
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

Thumbnails preview searchbar highlights all found occurrences in the document.
I would like to ask to add such feature to the "main" search tool (the one you
get by pressing CTRL+f), cause is more straightforward to use in a complex
scenario, like the one described below.
I am designing a residential heat pump system, the computer display is
carefully splitted in 2 or 4 symmetrical parts used to show Okular, Firefox,
Libreoffice Calc, etc.
In page 33 of document
https://www.panasonicproclub.com/uploads/IT/catalogues/RAC%202024_low.pdf
I see column header CU-3Z52TBE, then below in table
"Possibili combinazioni di unità esterne / interne"
I have to read the line with the same CU-3Z52TBE string, then going various
times back and forth between the two tables to confront various properties of
CU-3Z52TBE. Being able to highlight both occurrences of CU-3Z52TBE in the page
with a simple option checkbox in search tool would be way more comfortable than
opening the thumbnail preview, which ruins the view of the document. It's a
no-brainer GUI user experience improvement in my opinion.


This ticket is similar to older ticket
"Highlight every found match" https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381571
where I asked for a feature to highlight every found match, not knowing that it
was already available in thumbnail preview
