Patched bytes

Open the Patched bytes window. The Patched bytes view shows the list of the patched locations in the database. It also allows you to revert modifications selectively.

Patched bytes view

Reverting changes

Select location(s) and click Revert… from the context menu to revert this modification.

Patching bytes

You can change individual bytes via Edit → Patch program → Change byte….

Calculator...

Open calculator. A simple calculator is provided. You can enter constant C-style expressions. Syntax of the expressions is the same is the syntax of IDC expressions. The result is displayed in the message window in three forms: hexadecimal, decimal and character. All the names created during a disassembly may be used in these expressions. IDA can also pick up the name or number under the cursor and to store it into the input line.

Database snapshot manager...

Show the database snapshot manager. This command shows the database snapshot manager. In this dialog, it is possible to restore previously saved snapshots, rename or delete them.

The database snapshot manager dialog

Snapshots work only with regular databases. Unpacked databases do not support them.

Print segment registers

Print segment registers in the messages window. This command displays segment register contents in the output window. You may use this command to refresh the disassembly window too.

Hide

Hide the current function, segment, structure, enumeration or create a hidden range. This command allows you to hide a part of disassembly. You can hide a function, a segment, or create a special hidden range.

If a range is specified, a special hidden range is created on this range.

If the cursor is on the segment name at the start of the segment, the segment will be hidden. IDA will display only the header of the hidden segment.

If the cursor is on a structure variable and if the target assembler has the 'can display terse structures or the INFFL_ALLASM' bit on, then the structure will be collapsed into one line and displayed in the terse form.

Otherwise, the current function will be hidden. IDA will display only the header of the hidden function.

If there is no current function then IDA will beep.

If you want to see hidden items on the screen, you may use Unhide command or Setup hidden items... (action SetupHidden) command to display the hidden items. If you want to delete a previously created hidden range, you may use the Delete hidden range command (action DelHiddenRange).

Unhide

Unhide the current function, segment, structure, enumeration or hidden range. This command allows you to unhide a hidden part of disassembly.

This command unhides the element located under the cursor, following these rules:

• If the cursor is on the hidden function name, the function will be unhidden.

• If the cursor is on the terse structure variable, the structure will be uncollapsed and displayed in the regular form.

• If the cursor is on the hidden range, the hidden range will be unhidden.

• If the cursor is on the hidden segment name, the segment will be unhidden.

Hide all

Hide all functions, structs or enums. This command allows you to hide all functions and hidden ranges if invoked in the disassembly window. IDA will display only the header of the hidden items.

If you want to see hidden items on the screen, you may use the Unhide command or Setup hidden items... (action SetupHidden) command.

Delete hidden range

Delete the current hidden range, or all hidden ranges in a range. This command allows you to delete a hidden range of disassembly (previously defined by using the Hide command).
