Even if you search with the search bar, the number of matches is not displayed and "0 highlights" is displayed.

When searching for a string entered in advance in the HTTP message editor, the number of matches is not displayed in the search bar, and "0 highlights" is displayed. A few versions of burp used to show the number of matches as "2 matches". I am having an issue with the steps below. 1. Enter a search string in advance in the search bar 2. request or response is displayed 3. (When the search hits) "0 highlights" at the bottom right of the screen glows blue for about 1 second 4. (If the search does not hit) "0 highlights" at the bottom right of the screen does not light up If you enter a search string in the search bar after the request or response is displayed, the number of matches is displayed, such as "2 matches". I would like you to fix it so that the number of matches is displayed even if the search string is entered in advance in the search bar. thank you.
