Description null 2017-11-24 22:34:25 UTC
Use case: Searching text in long document with text fragments and pages rotated in between, requiring multiple manual rotations to be able to read the text while keeping search results displayed.

Steps to reproduce:
- open "autotests/data/file1.pdf"
- Ctrl + F, search for "this"
- Thumbnails: search for "some"
- Text selection tool: highlight "text"
- notice 3 highlighted words
- rotate page

Actual result: Words not highlighted anymore. Search needs to be restarted (thumbnails) or previous/next buttons need to be pressed (search bar).

Expected result: Words still highlighted. (Keeping the text selection is debatable, as it clears on click already. However, search results should not be lost.)

[Okular] Bug 387282: Highlighting of search results lost when rotating page

Summary:
The highlights were removed when rotating the page, also the RotaionJob::rotationMatrix function was not rotating the Highlihgts correctly.
I removed the deletion and modified the rotaionMatrix function by making it shorter and adding a translation after the rotatin. I tried different rotations and they are working fine.
