Version 1.44 of plugin causes TC 11.50 (32-bit version) to crash when "created" and "modified" fields are used in user-defined tooltips. Version 1.42 does not.

Is there a way to spring to the matched search result/string with xPDFsearch (like .txt files)?

When performing a 'Search' (Alt + F7) with the 'Find text' checkbox you can quickly spring jump to the matched string within the file by pressing F3 two times (either from the search results or the Listbox). Is this also possible with xPDFsearch enabled? If so, how should this be used/configured?

xPDFSearch is a content plugin (WDX). When viewing files in Lister a different type of plugin is used: Lister plugins (WLX). In other words, xPDFSearch has nothing to do with viewing files in Lister. You'd need a Lister plugin that is capable of viewing PDF files (e.g. sLister, TC Sumatra PDF, pdfview) and is also able to pass through the search term given by TC. No idea if any of the ones I mentioned can do that.

The plugins “TCSumatraPDF” and “sLister” have a “Search” field.
After entering a search text, the cursor is immediately positioned at the found location.
After a found PDF file (with "xPDFSearch") is displayed in the lister with F3, the search term must be entered again.

The “pdfview” plugin did not work for me when searching for text.

This makes sense. I'll check those.

Do you know if it is possible to export the matched strings results to a file? Llike FINDSTR does for plain text files, see this topic).
