1303873 - When iterating through find results the previous item transitions from having the yellow highlight to have no hightlight and then to a white highlight

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Toolkit :: Find Toolbar, defect)

This is very distracting because the last thing to change on the page is previous item. Ones eyes naturally move to the last thing to change which makes this behaviour quite annoying.

I am having a similar problem,

when going through the search findings here for "1770"

https://www.thermofisher.in/content/dam/fishersci/chemicals/pdf/Chemicals-Price-book-2020-2021.pdf

it gives 14 matches, when going trough these matches one by one, some are highlighted, hence easily identifiable, others seem not highlighted, and hence are not easily identified at first glance.

this was tested with firefox 91.6-esr on ubuntu linux 20.04 with window in fullscreen mode.

I'm not sure this last comment is about the same issue.

For comment 0, I don't see this issue. The highlght is always green for me. Jeff, is this bug still valid?

For comment 1, it looks like there are some hidden bits of text in the pdf document that are being found. Chrome's pdf viewer has exact same issue.

Yeah, I don't see this anymore.
