Search results disappear

Hi there,

I encounter sometimes an issue with the search in 5.0.97-beta.33+fdcd4e51c.

1.I type keywords in the search line (not in the advanced search window).
2.A get the items.
3.I open one item in the built-in pdf reader.
4.I read it.
5.I go back to the library where I expect to see my search results, but they are gone.The search line is empty, and I see all items, as before I searched.

    Unless this happens simply from opening the PDF and closing the tab immediately, we'd need the exact steps to reproduce, including exactly what you're doing in the PDF tab.

    A Debug IDfor reproducing it would also be helpful.
  • I encounter this if I highlight the document.I haven't tested other edits.It would be great if highlighting didn't clear the search results.
  • @JimHokansonJust creating a highlight doesn't seem to clear search results.Could you give exact steps what are you doing?
  • @martynas_bFor me it is that simple ...Here's a video demonstrating it:
    https://mcw.box.com/s/mco5gsripd28l4ntlavwukc3td9bnbwh

    The video shows me doing a search, getting some results, opening one of those, and then when I highlight some refresh occurs on the main screen and I lose the search results.Note in the video I am trying to show the size of the scroll bar as one indicator of how many entries are showing up from the search vs.showing up after highlighting in the document.
  • Wondering if this has been confirmed as a bug or not?Happy to try to provide more info.Would love to see this be fixed!
  • Can you provide a Debug IDfor it?We still can't reproduce this.
  • searched for articles with my last name name, opened a file "Predicting outcomes ..." - highlighted a bit of text on page 439, then went back to the main window where my search result was in the process of disappearing.ID: D313222159
