Steps to reproduce

  1. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1937931
  2. save, with a snapshot
  3. in Zotero, open the snapshot
  4. seek the word deviation

Expected

  1. one match, visible (highlighted)

Actual result

  1. one match, invisible

Workaround

  1. in the scrollable area under Media, use the scrollbar to scroll up until the highlighted text scrolls down into sight.
