Description Clarc 2020-10-25 09:27:28 UTC 
SUMMARY
Add option to highlight all occurrences of the search-term. This should make spotting them way easier, even if you're not clicking through every single instance to highlight them one after the other.

Many PDF-readers have this useful feature and I think it's important for Okular to add it as well.

I added a screenshot from "qpdfview" to highlight what I'm talking about.

FWIW this feature kind of already exists, you just need to find in the thumbnail view

I'm not sure what you mean. I would expect it to be in the options-popup in the search-bar. I searched for it and couldn't find it.
Could you specify the location?
