            Bug ID: 520601
           Summary: Feature request: search for text when launching Okular
                    from KRunner
    Classification: Applications
           Product: okular
      Version First 26.04.1
       Reported In:
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: aronkvh at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

I often search for Baloo indexed text and open the file from KRunner.
Currently:
1. Search in KRunner
2. Choose result
3. Press Ctrl+F and search again

It'd be a nice addition if KRunner passed the search term to Okular, and it
would automatically do a text search (when the search term matches file
contents and not the filename). So it would already open at the page that
contains your search term.

But of course a very minor thing.
