I nave query with highight like this:

```
        'highlight' => array(
            //'fields' => array('_all' => new stdClass() )
            'fields' => array(
                //'_all' => new stdClass(),
                'title' => new stdClass(),
                'item.title' => array('number_of_fragments' => 1, "fragment_size" => 128),
                'item.description' => array('number_of_fragments' => 1, "fragment_size" => 128),
            )
        )

```

if i supply query:  
two words  
item.description returns only 128 chars, as expected. But if  
"two words»  
it returns the same 128 chars and all remainder of that field. Bit strange.  
Should I provide additional info?

Can you post a curl recreation? [Elasticsearch Platform — Find real-time answers at scale | Elastic](http://www.elasticsearch.org/help)

Thanks for answer.  
Here is curl recreation [elasticsearch fragment\_size issue · GitHub](https://gist.github.com/1032233)  
Also issued result ( item4.description ) (you can see all doc also in \_source )  
and mapping.

Please tell, can I do the trick with highlight fields like ["item\*.title", "item\*.description"] in query fields?

I understand, it looks bit strange. I’m try to explain:  
All my docs contains 10 items with title and description (and so on, not important). I need to have 1 match per field, so my first version with just array of items wont work. If i setup number\_of\_fragments to 1 it returns _only_ 1 result for all 10 items. If i setup number\_of\_fragments to 0 it returns all description concatenated in 1 highlight. So solution is to make item1, item2 etc.  
Is it best solution?
