Jump menu actions for Local Types View

{% hint style=“info” %} The options below appear when the Jump menu is opened from the Local Types View. In other views, the menu adapts dynamically and may show a different set of options. {% endhint %}

Below is an overview of all actions that can be accessed from this menu.

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…).

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).
