Hi Jean-Marc, I just found a partial answer. I have to mark the area where I am going to search for the string with the mouse. Just calling the funtion by CTRL+F (or edit / find & replace) isn't enough.
But do I have to mark the whole document everytime I
am looking for a string in the whole document? That
could be quite annoying if the document is huge.
thanks for your help,
- helmut
PS: attached an example with a small text. For example
looking for "testing"

1. Introduction
Just for testing case.
