1. Overview:
I encountered a bug in Okular where the search results are not highlighted when I change the colors to black and green for improved readability. This issue prevents me from effectively using the search functionality within Okular.

2. Steps to Reproduce:
   a. Launch Okular on your system.
   b. Open a PDF document.
   c. Navigate to the color settings or preferences in Okular.
   d. Modify the colors to black and green (or any other color combination for improved readability).
   e. Perform a search within the document using the search feature in Okular.
   f. Observe that the search results are not highlighted or are not visible.

3. Expected Behavior:
When changing the colors for improved readability, the search results should be highlighted properly, allowing users to easily locate the searched keyword(s) within the PDF document.

4. Actual Behavior:
After modifying the colors in Okular, the search results are not highlighted, making it difficult to identify the occurrence of the searched keyword(s) within the document.

5. Reproducibility:
The issue is consistently reproducible following the provided steps on my system.

6. Screenshots:
Please refer to the provided screenshots for a visual demonstration of the issue.

7. Impact:
This bug affects users who rely on Okular's search functionality while utilizing customized color schemes for improved accessibility and readability.

8. Workaround:
As a temporary workaround, I suggest reverting the color settings to the default or using a different color scheme that does not cause the search results to be hidden.

9. Suggestion:
In addition to fixing the issue with search results not being displayed, I propose implementing a feature that allows users to choose the color used to mark search results. This customization would give users more flexibility and control over their reading experience.
