Bug ID: 365903
Summary: Search does not highlight search string occurrences
that are part of a word
Product: kate
Version: 16.04.1
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: search
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: fabian.kis...@gmx.de
When searching for short strings or numbers, occurrences that are part of a
word are not highlighted. For example, when searching for "25" in a table,
places where 25 occurs as a whole word (i.e. with spaces or dots before or
after it) are highlighted, but e.g. in "250ns" the 25 won't be. The real
problem now is that search and replace will still replace the "25" in "250ns".
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Search for a short string in a text file that contains the search string
both as whole words and as part of a word.
2. Use search and replace interactively to replace certain occurrences of the
search string.
Actual Results:
Occurrences that are part of a word are not highlighted by the search, but
replaced when using search and replace.
Expected Results:
Search and replace and search result highlighting should be consistent.
