[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #58372] Editor: Highlight all occurrences of word selected by double click centers text in editor window when off screen

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #58372 (project octave):

There is no proper QScintilla method like getXOffset() and setxOffset(). 
However, it's possible to access the proper routines via the base class's
SendScintilla() method.

Patch is attached.  Please consider applying prior to the upcoming version 6.1
release.

I've also attached a screen shot showing how the view remains the same.  Very
nice in the sense that there is a green dash in the left column to indicate
there is an occurrence on the line even though the word isn't visible because
it extends outside the area.
