Search Match Indicators Misaligned in Qt Creator 17.0.0+

XMLWordPrintable

    • All

      Qt Creator includes a useful feature where green lines beneath the vertical scrollbar indicate the positions of search matches. Since the update to Qt Creator 17.0.0, these indicators no longer align with the actual locations of matches in the file.

      This misalignment reduces the effectiveness of the feature, particularly in large files where users rely on the scrollbar markers to quickly locate and navigate between matches.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Open a large file in Qt Creator 17.0.0 or later.
      1. Use the search function (e.g., Ctrl+F) to find a frequently occurring term.
      1. Observe the green markers beneath the vertical scrollbar.
      1. Scroll through the file to verify if the match positions correspond to the indicators.

      Expected Result:
      Green lines under the scrollbar accurately reflect the positions of search matches.

      Actual Result:
      Green lines appear at incorrect positions that do not correspond to actual matches in the file.
