Bug ID: 427655
Summary: Bugfixes and Improvements to Search
Product: okular
Version: 1.11.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: okular-devel@kde.org
Reporter: f.tha...@posteo.net
Target Milestone: ---
1. Bug: (See attached Bug-Screenshot) Arrow-icons are cut off at their
top/bottom edge.
2. Feature Request: Add option to highlight all occurrences of the search-term.
This should make spotting them way easier, even if you're not clicking through
every single instance to highlight them one after the other.
Many PDF-readers have this useful feature and I think it's important for Okular
to add it as well.
I added a screenshot from "qpdfview" to highlight what I'm talking about.
3. Feature Request: Display the number of occurrences of the search-term. Not
as important as the previous feature request, but still a functionality that
should make searching way more comfortable.
4. Feature Request: Use the sidebar in the search. Two Options:
4.1. When the user searches, create a fifth sidebar-tab that shows the page and
roughly the environment of each found occurrence. (see Sidebar-Screenshot).
4.2 In the sidebar-tab titled "Contents", when the user searches for a term,
the chapters that contain the search-term should get highlighted (yellow to
keep it consistent)
In my opinion 4.2 seems more important; both could be implemented at the same
time though.
Okular seems to me like an amazing, feature-packed pdf-reader. Improvements to
the search are pretty much the only thing that is missing for me, personally.
