Description David 2022-01-06 18:41:41 UTC
Description:
Since version 7.2 the Find function in Draw doesn't work reliably. I have a multi page document and I know the word "need" is in there. I want to find the instance so I can amend it to "needed". 

I bring up the Find bar with CTRL-F and type in the word but it is not found. It changed the colour to red to indicate the word is not in the document.

Clicking Find All Instances doesn't work either.

Sometimes I can use "Find and Replace" and search for part of the word and it will then find it e.g. I would search for "nee" and no problem, the word is found.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Bring up the Find bar
2. Type a word you know is in the document and want to locate
3. Click Find or Find All

Actual Results:
the word colour changes in the search field to indicate it is not present in the document, even though you know it is

Expected Results:
It should jump to an instance of the word or highlight all of them if you selected the option to find all instances.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes


OpenGL enabled: Yes

Additional Info:
It should jump to an instance of the word or highlight all of them if you selected the option to find all instances.
