No purple highlight for searched text in secure notes with markdown disabled.

When searching within secure notes, the behavior of text highlighting is inconsistent based on the Markdown setting.

Expected Behavior:
The searched text should be consistently highlighted regardless of the Markdown setting.

Actual Behavior:
With Markdown enabled, searched text is highlighted with a purple background in secure notes.
With Markdown disabled, searched text is not highlighted.

    Hi cyclic! I can definitely understand how having the same search highlighting capability in Quick Access as well would be useful, and I've passed your feedback along to our product team in the form of a feature request. If you have any further suggestions or questions, let us know 😄

    HI kevin_li ,

    I would also like to point out another issue related to search and item/detail highlight (in Quick Access).

    Even though I have markdown enabled, nothing highlights in 1. Quick Access "Search" and 2. Quick Access "Item/Detail", see the attached screenshots.

    Even if it's by design I think it is better the have the same highlighting capability in Quick Access Search and Item as well.

    I have many long secure notes and the highlighting helps me a lot to find the correct information quickly.

    Could you please look these cases?, I really think these are missed out in development/testing.

    1. Quick Access Search:

    2. Quick Access Item/Detail window:

    Hi cyclic,

    Thanks for sharing the screenshots and I can confirm the same misbehavior. I was looking at the search suggestion results rather than the item details:

    I created an internal issue for our developers to investigate further. I appreciate you brought it to our attention.

    Let us know if you have any other questions.

    Hi cyclic ,

    I tested according to your description of the issue, however, the purple highlight effect is working on the search term in my testes with or without the Markdown option being turned on.

    Therefore, can you share some screenshots of the misbehavior on your end? (Make sure there is no personal info revealed in the screenshots)
