I'm aware that searching for "exact strings" require the search string to contain at least one whole word, but I'm not using exact string in this case.
What I did:
- Searched for the single character "‣" using "Contents Only" with "Matches the Foxtrot query".
- Searched for the string "adam smith" by adding another criteria to search for "Contents, any metadata or filename", and select "Matches the Foxtrot query".
Unexpected Result:
- This return a lot of documents, and none of them contains the character "‣" in content. It seems to search for only "adam smith". An example file is attached.
If I repeat the same process, but search for another single character like the letter "f", then it works as expected, and I will find documents with a single letter "f" in the contents. For some reason it's not working as expected for the character "‣"? If this part of expected behavior, please clarify it for users. Otherwise, if this is a bug, then please fix.
