Description David 2021-12-23 22:58:10 UTC
Description:
I'm using Draw 7.2.4.1 but I've also been experience Find issues in the previous couple of official point releases.

I have a Draw document. I know it has multiple instances of the words I am searching for but the Find bar and the Find and Replace dialog seem unable to to find them. Worse, they are saying the word isn't present! Sometimes I can search for part of a word with better success e.g. searching for "ulture" rather than "culture". Find All doesn't seem to work either.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a Draw document.
2. Use Find or Find and Replace to try and find instances of a word you know is present in the document.
3. Find reports the word is not present.

Actual Results:
As above.

Expected Results:
After searching for a word with Find, clicking next instance should take you to it. Find All show highlight all instances of the word. Neither seems to be working in Draw.


Reproducible: Always

Locale: en-NZ (en_NZ.utf8); UI: en-US

NOTE: running QT5 rather than GTK3 because of the FILESAVE bug which causes LibreOffice to take 5-10 minutes to save Draw documents (or which causes LO to hang indefinitely).
