# Operand types

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

* [Convert operand to offset](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/offset.md)
* [Convert operand to number](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/number.md)
* [Convert operand to character](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/convert-operand-to-character.md)
* [Convert operand to segment](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/convert-operand-to-segment.md)
* [Convert operand to enum](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/convert-operand-to-symbolic-constant-enum.md)
* [Convert operand to stack variable](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/convert-operand-to-stack-variable.md)
* [Change operand sign](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/change-operand-sign.md)
* [Bitwise negate operand](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/bitwise-negate-operand.md)
* [User-defined operand](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/user-defined-operand.md)
* [Set operand type](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/set-operand-type.md)

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](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/search.md#search-for-next-suspicious-operand) marks.

Some of these commands can be applied to a selected range. Click [here](/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types/perform-en-masse-operation.md) to learn about the rules applied to such operations.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.hex-rays.com/9.1/user-guide/user-interface/menu-bar/edit/operand-types.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
