# Operand types

This submenu allows you to change the operand types to offsets, numbers, chars, etc. Use it to make disassembled text more understandable.

If IDA suspects that an operand can be represented as something different from a plain number, it will mark the operand as "suspicious" and show it in red. Use these commands to delete [suspicious](https://docs.hex-rays.com/8.4/user-guide/user-interface/search#search-for-next-suspicious-operand) marks.

Some of these commands can be applied to a selected range. Click [here](https://docs.hex-rays.com/8.4/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/perform-en-masse-operation) to learn about the rules applied to such operations.
