Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-3897:
------------------------------------

bq. Seems like for preserveMulti=true, one should get all field values 
regardless of the setting of snippets.  Should the number of snippets per field 
value be capped at 1 when preserveMulti==true, or should we consider snippets 
to be per value rather than per field?

I think each field value, when preserveMulti=true, should be considered 
separately and all highlighting parameters for that field should apply to each 
field value.  Number of fragments, for example, should be per field value 
instance.  And I suppose this necessitates another array level in the response? 
  

Sorry if this got a fair bit more complicated than it started.  After pondering 
this after the original patch was committed, I realized there'd be some 
confusion between field values and fragments.

> The behavior of the default Solr hit highlighter on multi-value fields is to 
> only return the values that have a hit and sort them by score.
> This ticket supplies a patch that adds a new highlight parameter called 
> "preserveMulti" which can be used on a feild by field basis to return all of 
> the values in their original order. If this parameter is used, the values 
> that have a hit are highlighted and the ones that do not contain a hit are 
> returned un-highlighted.
> The "preserveMulti" parameter works with the default standard highlighter and 
> follows the standard highlighting conventions.
> Sample usage for a field called "cat":
> f.cat.hl.preserveMulti=true
