           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All

Writer file illustrating a problem with FIND and index marks

Version: 7.0.0.3 (x64)
Build ID: 8061b3e9204bef6b321a21033174034a5e2ea88e
CPU threads: 4; OS: Windows 10.0 Build 19041; UI render: Skia/Raster; VCL: win
Locale: en-GB (en_GB); UI: en-GB
Calc: threaded

Open the attached Writer file. It contains a short (demonstration) Alphabeticsl
Index at the back.

Notice the two types of index marks in the text: (1) LARGE INDEX MARK, spanning
one or more words, indicating that the text in the shaded area is to be found
in the index, VERBATIM. (2) SMALL INDEX MARK, at the beginning of words,
indicating that the initially-highlighted "Entry" has been altered (in "Insert
Index Entry) and can be found under a different word in the Index.

1. Place the cursor at the beginning of the document.
2. Open the Find toolbar. Enter "didn't bode" (this phrase occurs several times
in the text). Press the "Find Next" arrow.

EXPECTED RESULT: The first occurence of "didn't bode" near the top of page 1 is
highlighted.

ACTUAL RESULT: The first occurence of the phrase is missed – because it
contains a SMALL index mark. This problem occurs for any search where the
phrase contains a small index mark. NOTE: Text within LARGE index marks is not
affected by the bug.
