Hello Lars,
Finally we succeeded to find a workaround for the JavaHelp search
highlight problem. We had to make modifications to the HTML files
displayed in the help viewer before they are indexed because the
JavaHelp indexer computes wrong indexes. We inserted already a fixup
step in the automated pipeline which produces the help archive. You can
download a corrected version of the help archive for <oXygen/> 7.1 here:
http://www.oxygenxml.com/update/helpFixed7.1/help.zip
Just replace [oXygen-install-folder]/lib/help.zip with the downloaded
file and restart <oXygen/> to see the search matches highlighted correctly.
Best regards,
Sorin

Hello,
We know about the wrong highlights and we were not able to find a fix
until now. We think it is caused by bugs in the Swing view used by the
JavaHelp system to display HTML content because <oXygen/> does not
implement a custom search mechanism. It provides the search control of
the JavaHelp system. The problem is worse if you run <oXygen/> with a
Java 1.4 virtual machine: the highlights do not match the word
correctly even at the beginning of the page on the right. That means
the Swing view works better in later versions of the Sun's JVM
(1.5.0_x) but some bugs still exist. We still try to find a solution.
Starting with version 7.2 the Help will be presented in a separate
window, with usual platform-dependent decorations (on Windows, by
default a window has minimize, maximize and close buttons) and a
separate taskbar button. It will behave as a normal window, with the
only restriction that closing the main frame of the application will
close also the Help window. It is already implemented in the
development stream but there is a problem with the focus when F1 is
pressed in a type of dockable views, bringing the main frame on top of
the help window at a very short time after F1 is pressed and the help
window is displayed. We work on this too.
Best regards,
Sorin
Thanks again for your responsiveness. I'll say again that this is one of
the big reasons why I stay with Oxygen.
