# 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 unified alternative to the various jump commands and as a faster successor to "Jump to address..." (`JumpAsk` action).
**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
The Jump Anywhere dialog can be opened using Ctrl + Alt + G (Command + Alt + G on macOS) shortcut.
Optionally, you can bind it to G key, replacing the default "Jump to address..." dialog (`JumpAsk` action). This and other related settings (preview pane) can be configured under Options → Feature Flags.
## Adjusting Additional Parameters in idagui.cfg
The behavior of the Jump Anywhere dialog can be customized by editing `idagui.cfg`.
```
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Jump anywhere parameters
//-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#ifdef __QT__
JUMP_ANYWHERE_MAX_HISTORY = 25 // maximum number of history entries in the jump anywhere dialog
JUMP_ANYWHERE_MAX_RESULTS = 10000 // maximum number of search results (0 = no limit)
#endif
```
The Jump Anywhere feature requires the indexer to be enabled (`ENABLE_INDEXER = YES` in `ida.cfg`). Disabling the indexer is possible in `ida.cfg`, by setting `ENABLE_INDEXER = NO`. This can be useful when running IDA in headless mode, as it avoids the overhead of building and maintaining the index.
