Yes, there is an issue in version 5.7.1. Highlighting, and maybe also searching, does not work reliably: sometimes it works, sometimes not. In fact this is a random bug that has existed for years, but it seems that the newest versions of Xcode make it happen much more often (it has never been reported, or seen by us, before).
You can download a preliminary build of FoxTrot 5.7.2 from:

Please let us know if it fixes the issue for you.
Thanks for the report
PS: there is a completely unrelated issue on macOS 10.12 Sierra, that makes highlighting occurrences in PDF files bogus. It was totally broken until 10.12.2, and is only partially fixed in 10.12.3: with this version, all occurrences of searched words found on a given PDF page are highlighted using the same color, even when searching multiple words.
