JumpAnywhere

Description

Jump to any location in the database. Jump Anywhere simplifies navigating and quick jumps to any location within the IDB. The Jump Anywhere is designed as a fast, unified entry point to navigate "everywhere" - the dialog accept names, expressions, segment-relative addresses, and script identifiers.

Jump Anywhere dialog

See the full reference for acceptable inputs in the Jump Anywhere dialog.

Jump Anywhere key functionalities:

  • Fast, case-insensitive and asynchronous search across functions, local types, names, and segments, with results ranked by type and similarity score.

  • Supports searches for both mangled and demangled versions of functions and names.

  • Allows searching by address or simple expression, as in "Jump to address...".

  • Inline preview of matching results, showing the target location.

  • The Jump Anywhere dialog supports jumping to a field offset in the Local Types view, acting as replacement for the “Jump to file offset” dialog.

How Jump Anywhere Works

The Jump Anywhere performs a case-insensitive search across functions, local types, names, and segments. Matching results are presented in a list along with a preview (disabled under Options → Feature Flags), and can be navigated using the keyboard cursor keys.

If the input can be interpreted as an address expression, an entry for the corresponding destination is automatically added to the top of the results list.

How to open Jump Anywhere

  • Press G to open the Jump Anywhere dialog (default).

  • Press G ↓ ↵ to jump again to the last location visited through Jump Anywhere.

Settings and behavior

The related settings (preview pane) can be configured under Options → Feature Flags. If you prefer the legacy G shortcut behavior bound with Jump to address, you can enable it there as well.

Adjusting Additional Parameters in idagui.cfg

The behavior of the Jump Anywhere dialog can be customized by editing idagui.cfg.

The Jump Anywhere works even when the indexer is disabled (ENABLE_INDEXER = NO in ida.cfg). This can be useful when running IDA in headless mode, as it avoids the overhead of building and maintaining the index.
