Jump to operand

Jump to the specified address. By pressing Enter you navigate in the program in the same way as in a hypertext (the way the web browsers and help screens use). This is the easiest way to explore the program: just position the cursor at the desired name and press JumpEnter. Your current address is saved in the jump stack. The Jump to previous position command (action Return, usually Esc) will return you back. If the cursor is at a stack variable, a window with stack variables is opened and the definition of the stack variable is displayed.

Jump to previous position

Return to the previous saved position. It takes positions from Jumps Stack.

Jump to next position

Go to the next saved position. This command cancels the last Jump to previous position command.

Jump to address...

Jump to the specified address. This command jumps to the specified address in the program. IDA will ask you for the target address. You can enter a name or an address as a hexadecimal number with or without a segment. If you enter a valid address then:

  • the current address is saved in the jump stack.

  • the cursor is positioned to the specified address.

The Jump to previous position command ( action Return, usually Esc) will return you back. In the structure and enum views, the cursor will be moved to the corresponding offset in the current type.

Jump by name...

Jump to the selected name. This command allows you to jump to a name definition by selecting it from the list of the names. IDA will display the list of the names (sorted by addresses) and you can choose a name. Dummy names (generated by IDA) are not listed. Hidden names are not listed either. You can control which names are listed in the Names representation dialog box (Action SetNameType, Options → Name representation...).

Jump to segment...

Jump to the selected segment. IDA will ask you to select the target segment. After:

  • the current address is saved in the jump stack.

  • the cursor is positioned to the specified address. The Jump to previous position command (action Return, usually Esc) will return you back. See also: How to choose a segment.

Jump to segment register...

Jump to the selected segment register change point. IDA will ask you to select a target change point, and after:

  • the current address is saved in the jump stack.

  • the cursor is positioned to the specified address.

Jump to problem...

Jump to the selected problematic location. IDA will display the Problems List and will allow you to select a problem. The Jump to previous position command (action Return, usually Esc)(usually Esc) will return you back.

Jump to xref to operand...

Jump to the selected cross reference to operand. This command shows you a list of cross-references to the current operand: you can jump to the selected one by pressing Enter. See also the description of the cross references window.

Jump to entry point...

This command shows you a list of entry points: you can jump to the selected one by pressing Enter.

The list of entry points is created at the database creation time. It is not modified after that (for example, renaming an exported function does not change the list of entry points).

Jump to file offset...

Jump to file offset. IDA will ask you for a target file offset. This command jumps to the address corresponding to this specified file offset. If this file offset corresponds to a valid address then: the current address is saved in the jump stack. the cursor is positioned to the corresponding address. The Jump to previous position command (action Return, usually Esc) will return you back.

Mark position...

Remember the current position in the disassembly. You can mark certain locations of the file to be able to jump to them quickly (use the Jump to marked position... command). Text description of the location may help to find a desired location easily. First select a slot for the mark, then enter a description for the location.

Jump to marked position...

Jump to the selected marked position.

IDA will ask you to select a target position. After:

  • the current address is saved in the jump stack.

  • the cursor is positioned to the specified address. The Jump to previous position command (action Return, usually Esc) will return you back. You can mark the position using the Jump to marked position... command (action JumpPosition).
