First thing I can think of is that there is some weird limit in the new search engine, when it comes to the amount of notes and/or notebooks stopping it from producing any results? Because on both Windows a on Android any search gives no results. This happens in both the filter search and the search all field. No errors are thrown in the console, simply gives me no results. (The ctrl+f in editor search does work but that while probably unrelated I thought I should mention it)
Everything else seems to work fine, luckily I hardly ever use the search function anyway but I’d expected more people to report this? So that is why I’m thinking it could have something to do with my amount of notes or setup.
That’s weird. I haven’t ever heard about that issue while it is in beta.
I need to reproduce the problem.
Maybe some notes are causing the issue, like special characters or something?
I also thought about the possibility of special characters messing up the party. Maybe put some parts of the search feature where you think the error happens in a try catch and throw the log errors to the console for next version so I can see what the console comes up with?
How could I use the demo version to reproduce it? I can only begin to guess at what is causing it at this point, I’d have to know more on the used tech and your code.
Note that I really hardly ever use search and wont really miss it.
Yeah you are right, we have to know more to dig into it.
The FTS happens in the main process, so you won’t get any errors on Developer Tools because it’s on renderer process.
I guess you can get some logs if you run .exe from terminal (command prompt).
If you couldn’t get anything, I would like to insert some debug code.
I am having the exact same problem after upgrading to v4, but only on one of my two Windows machines, not on the other.
On Android, the new search finds some notes, but not others.
Aah yes it seems to work after editing notes, and I thought it was simply finally done building the index when it just worked this morning! Yeah, if you’d force it to update on all notes once after installing the update it should actually be fine to only rebuild after edits. Thanks for finding a fix!
