Description

How to reproduce:

Create a plain text file which contains more lines of text than the window is able to show without scrolling. Now call the search (Strg + F in my case, with other keyboads I assume it is Ctrl + F). Type in a word which is only available in the last line. Until now everthing works fine. Close the search whithout deleting the keyword, scroll to the top and and call the search again. Voilà, the match cannot been seen and you aren't able to scroll to it. Furthermore the match will not be highlighted which is another little bug I think. How do I know this when the match is not visible at all? Try the same but search for a string which is available in the first line. Close the search without deleting the keyword, scroll to the bottom and call the search again. The match is now visible but not highlighted. I think the match should be highlighted because the view jumps to it.

I am using Xubuntu 18.10 64 bit. Let me know when I should create another bug for the missing highlighting.
