Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi,
I have the following problem. It has existed before and exists in 5.5.316.0.
This is the default situation:
All fine here. I am using the cursor-down key to scroll through the list of hits. For each hit in the list the hit is highlighted in the document.
However, now I come to page 8, and the situation is:
While continuing to move down in the list of hits, the hits in the document are not highlighted anymore, i.e., none of the hits on that page.
Then, coming to page 9, everything works again.
This document is just an example. I have had this on a number of other occasions - however, no obvious rule behind this behavior. Since I obtain a lot of documents from processing with OmniPage Ultimate 19, this could be a commonality, however, no guarantee
And, to make things worse:
This was after I restarted PDF-XChange Editor, i.e., that's what I expected.
I trust with 8GB of RAM, Win7 64bit, SSD, i5 @ 3.2 GHz we are not looking at resource issues.
So, sorry to leave you with this, but it occurs "regulary", just not following an apparent rule.
Cheers
Ralf

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Ralf,
Thanks for the post - I've seen this before but have never been able to reproduce it. I'm afraid that I can't in this instance either. It's not likely to be an issue with the amount of RAM your have, or your processor, but it could be related to storage space, or space in your %temp% folder. Can you please try clearing your system temp folder and see if that helps?

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Will,
the %temp% folder had only 4.4 MB (not GB), so that cannot have been the issue. Still I have cleaned it. Also, I have about 16GB free space on c:\, the SSD-drive where Win7 and applications are stored.

Hi Ralf,
Can you please try exporting your settings (Edit --> Export Settings) and sending to me? I'd like to test to see if this is an issue with some setting that is causing some kind of strange conflict.

I'm seeing this as well at times. Re-doing the search usually fixes the issue.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Will,
I have sent my settings file via email to you. I don't think that it is a settings problem.
Rather, since I am using the search very extensively, I assume that I get to see this issue more often than others. Also, stepping through the results is something probably only a few users do. In fact, I think that David.P, looking at his profession , is also using the search rather often, perhaps in a similar way as I do, and is thus also more likely to see this issue.
Cheers

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
I use the search about 500 times a day, most of the times including the "stepping through" the occurrences
On a related note, it would be great if this issue:
aka "do not shift the document horizontally when clicking on a Find occurrence, on a bookmark or on a page thumbnail"
...could be fixed as well.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Ralf,
I've test with your settings (thanks for sending) and it looks as though you're correct: cannot reproduce the problem.
Is there any other information that you can provide, that may help us 'nail this down' once and for all?

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Will,
you just have to use the search like I and David.P do it.... Seriously, I am afraid I have no further hint. The more often you are using the search on varying documents, the more likely the issue will occur. But other than that? Well, in case it becomes reproducible, I will post again.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Ralf,
I've brought this to the attention of the Dev. Team and they've said that they will see if they can reproduce the issue and identify the cause, if possible. If not, I'll let you know what we need.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Will,
I keep seeing this issue. Redoing the search can either fix the problem or (sometimes) let it appear at other locations. Since the matches are shown correctly at the right hand side, I assume that the problematic entries (represented at the right hand side) lack the highlighting information or have incorrect highlighting information. Since I see this issue at least on a daily basis, is there something I can do to extract/dump the highlighting information, so that your developers can look at this?
I have some sympathy that you seem to be unable to reproduce this issue, most likely because you are usually not using the search extensively, but there should be something I can provide you with so that you get more clues on where to look for the problem. Since I have seen this issue over multiple (all?) versions over the last two years and also on different computers, I am sure it is something in the program that can be investigated on your end. Thank you.
Cheers
Ralf

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi everyone,
I'm still seeing this as well from time to time, however maybe only a few times a week.
Ralf has pointed it out already, but maybe it is useful to state that, if this issue occurs, not all search highlights in the entire document are missing, but only some (the missing highlights being possibly limited to certain pages).
Cheers

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi guys,
The issue for us is that it is impossible to fix something that we cannot reproduce and that happens so intermittently. Given how intermittent it is, a remote session would be of no use because it could potentially be hours before we see the issue.
I was briefly able to reproduce the issue today, but upon restarting the Editor to see if I could reproduce it a second time, the problem completely disappeared (as I believe you mentioned yourselves). The best that I can do is grab the Dev. Team and have them look on my PC when I reproduce the problem, but that could be a while, so I cannot guarantee a quick fix.
Thanks,

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
From the users' side, it would be interesting to know if the problem is there on a "per page" base.
In other words, for a particular page "all the hits" are shown or are not shown/highlighted.
From the developers' side, it would be interesting to know if they did built in some switch, into the Editor, to whether show all the hits for a whole page or not.
If these two questions would have a positive answer, then the developers could look and find out why that switch 'sometimes' goes OFF for particular pages ... Maybe when a 'hits counter' for those pages has no value, invalid value or a zero value ...

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Willy,
The problem here seems to be that the page on which results are not highlighted, differs each time the issue appears. There is no such 'switch' in the Editor that we have deliberately put in that may cause this. Essentially, all search results should always be highlighted, irrespective of the page that they're on.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Will,
Is there something we can do, when we see this problem, e.g. collect information on the error present? I assume that your devs would have a general idea of where such issue could occur, so perhaps when the error is there, they could use some additional information to better locate the problem? I understand that this is not easy, but I would hope that I can contribute further information when I see this error, so that this can be addressed. Thank you.
Cheers

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hello Support-
I want to chime in that I also see this issue frequently. It happened just now on a pdf that was made from a .tiff and that I OCR'd using the Editor. The .tiff to .pdf was handled by "ImageMagick 6.6.0-1 2010-03-04 Q8 http://www.imagemagick.org" before I downloaded it.
I realize that does not give you much to go on, but I want to remind Support that this is a real issue, affecting more than a few random users with random pdf files. It happens to me all the time across a wide variety of pdfs.
I am at work so I cannot send the pdf or do a remote session. Still, I hope you look into it.
Thanks.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi guys,
This isn't an issue of us not taking this seriously, we just can't reproduce the problem in any consistent manner. If we can't see the problem in action, we cannot fix it.
Having user's files does not help, as we may reproduce it once, then subsequently cannot. Having user's settings does not help, as it is not settings related. It also does not appear to be related to operating system, architecture, system resources, etc.
We are doing what we can to fix the problem, but it is not a simple 'look and fix' issue.

Hi Mica,
Thanks for the post - please do let us know.
Also, while I'm not certain that it will fix the issue (given that we couldn't reproduce it to fix it!), I would strongly urge that you all download and test the Version 6 Editor that was released yesterday, and advise on whether it helps, is worse, is no better or worse, etc.

Hi Micha,
That's correct. At this time, I'm not sure if this was intentional or if the Update Server simply hasn't been, itself, updated. I'll confirm with the Dev. Team later today.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Will,
I "accidentally" found your reference to the version 6. Have you notified the other users involved, i.e., David.P, bqxmprij and Willy Van Nuffel? Micha May is obviously aware of this version.
While it is much too early to make a call, since I have not seen this issue yet with the test version, I think it is fair to say that it is not "worse". I will continue testing, and if the other users are testing, too, we should have a meaningful indication soon.
Cheers
Ralf

Hi Ralf,
I've not personally notified anyone as, to my knowledge, we still haven't been able to reproduce the issue to troubleshoot, so I was not expecting any fix. However, I do believe that many are ware, as I've discussed other requests/issues with them, in different topics.
Do keep us posted!

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
I will just add I have been seeing this for years with every version. In fact, I can guarantee it will happen if I try a search with many hits in a long document. This is something I do a lot, so I get the problem all the time. Next/Previous jump to the correct pages, the notches are visible on the vertical scroll bar, but some highlights are invisible in the text.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi all,
Exciting news!! I have managed to reproduce it here and the Dev. Team are now investigating (again). Hopefully we'll have more luck now that they've seen the issue directly.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
While they are at it, can they make the scroll bar show all instances of hits, not just the ones below or above? I can click on next/previous but the search is done anyway, why not show all hits?

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi,
it may not help much, but I can confirm that the issue is still present in the 6.0 (build 317.0) version. I am glad to hear that the issue has been reproduced.
Cheers
Ralf

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Ralf,
The issue has not been fixed yet. I believe that the fix should be implemented for build 318.

Hello Micha May,
Just checked the ticket - but there doesn't seem to be any significant update as to whether it is fixed or which build it will be for. As soon as there are some news - we will let you know.

Stefan

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi all,
I just did a search for a word over an entire folder of 70 PDF documents.
When browsing through the results list, in almost 2/3rds of the cases the search term was NOT highlighted.
This even did not improve when re-doing the search a coupe of times.
I hope this helps in tracking that error down.
Regards
David.P

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi David,
Thanks for the post - from what I can see on the ticket, a developer has been assigned to the issue. There hasn't been any fix yet, as the ticket was created not long prior to the release of Version 6 Build 317, so it couldn't make it into that, and 317.1 was only to address some critical issues and this was not one.
While I cannot give definite confirmation, I believe that it's likely to be fixed for Build 318.
Thanks,

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Since Build 318 seems to be in the test: Is this issue fixed in Build 318?

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hello Micha May,
I see the ticket is marked as resolved, and I could also no longer reproduce this issue with a release candidate copy of 318 - so next week you should be able to download the fixed build yourself.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi,
bad news: I just had the issue again on the 6.0.317.1 build. One hit was not highlighted. However, the quick workaround to redo the search worked fine.
Cheers
Ralf

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
This may not be fixed either. I just downloaded this file and did a search for "asbestos". A few instances of the word right at the beginning of the file were not highlighted, while ones further on were. When I re-did the search the ones at the beginning were then highlighted. I don't think the way I have the Options set up would cause this. Please see attached.

Re: Hits sometimes not highlighted
Hi Arnold,
The ticket that was marked as resolved was actually regarding the issue with highlights in the document scrollbar.
The issue with not being able to find some highlights has not been resolved because we still have exactly the same problem as before: we cannot reliably reproduce the issue. Even if I can reproduce it once, the development team need to see it happening with their debugging tools or they're not able to locate the specific portion of code that is causing the issue. Until this happens, there cannot be any fix.
