Description stephenboston 2023-11-28 17:04:21 UTC
Description:
When I run a findall on a document I want to see all findings in a single view. 

This view is a Navigator with links to the found locations.

For each item we want a snip of some length from the context, perhaps a few words or characters. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open the Find dialog
2.Enter a search key
3.Choose Find All 




Actual Results:
The document view highlights the found locations. 

Expected Results:
1. A 'Navigator' window opens listing all the locations that the key is found. 
2. With each item there is a snippet from the find's location in the document. 
3. Each item is a link to that location
4. Clicking on the link moves the document view to center on that location, ready for input.
5. The Navigator remains open until the user explicitly closes it. 




Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

Additional Info:
This is not a bug.
