Thanks for bringing Scrivener to Windows - I just started exploring the Beta today, and am already very excited!
I’ve been going through the tutorial, and in Step 12 I used the search field. For starters, it took me away from Step 12 back to START HERE, which I wasn’t expecting - but easily surmountable by clicking back on Step 12.
However, I then read that “the search term - in this case “binder” - is now highlighted in red in the current document”. I’m sorry to report that this proved false - the term “binder” was just as non-red as it had ever been.
You need to download the newest version of the Beta (1.3) I believe this fixes this bug. It is in a thread that is stickied at the top of the Windows Bug Hunt Forum.
When I search for things (even during the tutorial) they are highlighted in bright red. I assumed you were using an earlier version because in the original the highlighting was so light most people couldn’t see it, so they changed it to bright red in 1.3.
I’m using ver 1.3, Windows 7, and search does not highlight the term it finds, in tutorial or in my document. Definitely could have used this feature while doing NaNoWriMo. Is there a setting that needs to be changed in my options?
I confirm the same.
Running beta 1.3 under Win7 32bit, I tried the search option in tutorial when I started, but did no further check at that time, as the search panel appeared, as said in tutorial.
But right now, I was searching for an expression in one of my files.
The search panel opened and the two files containing the search item were there, but inside of these files, the word was not highlighted at all, neither in red, nor in pink.
