Hi,  
we're having this very well known error "the length of field[...] index has exceed maximum allowed to be analyzed for highlighting". We're trying to use the `max_analyzed_offset` setting as a global search setting in the Discover page. I only find ways to use it for specific search queries in dev tools or with curl.  
Any ideas on how to achieve that? We're on the 7.17.
