Search does not affect cursor position in caret mode #7925

@tomak-git

Description

@tomak-git

Configuration:

  • Web browser and its version: Firefox 50.1.0
  • Operating system and its version: Ubuntu 16.04
  • PDF.js version: default

Steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Open a web page with text
  2. Search for a string of text
  3. Enter caret mode

Result: cursor is positioned at the place of search hit -- this is the expected behavior.

Do all of the above with a pdf (in pdf.js): cursor position is not affected by search.

Use case: if this worked as expected, it would allow for text selection in pdfs without needing a mouse.
