Description Alex Loes 2016-10-13 08:37:54 UTC

okular 0.24.2 on Linux Mint 18

I search for a word in the PDF Document by entering it in the Filter. Okular then direct finds it. When I enter a new word to search for in this field and hit Enter, okular doesn't find it. I have to click on a Filter Option and then okular finds it.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enter a keyword in the Filter input dialog. Hit the Enter key. 
Okular finds the word in the document
2. Enter a new word contained in the document on a different page.
3. Hit the Enter key

Actual Results:  
Okular doesn't find the word contained in the Document (PDF). Nothing else happens.

Expected Results:  
Find the word after hitting the Enter key (Launching a new search and display the result in the page preview).

After clicking on a filter in Filter options, okular begins the search.

Hey Alex,

I tried to reproduce this bug on my system.
For me it works as you wished it would.

Could you try it with a newer version of okular and tell us the result?

Note: I am no maintainer but from the KDE bugsquad
tested on okular 1.3.3
