Description Elmar 2020-11-15 05:55:24 UTC
Description:
I am working on two documents (one is minutes). I need to write a report on progress. I open the minutes. I FIND ALL occurrences of my name.
The moment I change focus to the report, all the highlights are lost in minutes, so I need to do FIND ALL again.
This does not happen if I open the minutes in LO Writer Version: 6.4.6.2.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open two documents - existing minutes and start new report
2. find word in minutes
3. move focus to report, in order to type text


Actual Results:
4. all highlights are lost in minutes

Expected Results:
the highlights should remain



Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Don't repro this on Windows so assuming this to be a GTK3 specific issue
Comment 2 Justin L 2020-12-03 06:31:50 UTC
I can't reproduce with GTK3.  (Ubuntu with Cinnamon DE 20.04).
I tested with bibisect-linux-64-7.0 and 7.1 as well as compiled 7.2 master.

By "highlights" I assume you mean the selection.
