24.1.13 Work with Data Selections
Use: To:
ALT+ARROW
(after selecting
one or more
data selection
objects on the
document
page)
Move the data selection in a data selection object. The size of the data selection
remains stable; the shortcut changes the position of the selection on the data page.
This adjusts the values of the line and/or column properties (or, in the case of a
database emulation, the Field name, and/or the From/To record properties) of the
data selection. Use the UP ARROW to move the selection up one line (or record), the
DOWN ARROW to move the selection down one line (or record), the LEFT ARROW to
move the selection one column (or field) to the left, and the RIGHT ARROW to move
the selection one column (or field) to the right. The Data Pane also updates to reflect
the changes to the data selections.
SHIFT+ARROW
(after selecting
one or more
data selection
objects on the
document
page)
Resize the data selection in a data selection object. This adjusts the values of the
line and/or column properties (or, in the case of a database emulation, the Field
name, and/or the From/To record properties) of the data selection. Use the DOWN
ARROW or UP ARROW to respectively increase or decrease the size of the data
selection by one line (or record in the case of a database emulation), along its
bottom edge. Use the RIGHT ARROW or LEFT ARROW to respectively increase or
decrease the size of the data selection by one column (or field in the case of a
database emulation), along its right edge. The Data Pane also updates to reflect the
changes to the data selections.
24.1.14 Use the Hex Viewer
Use: To:
CTRL+P Print a hexadecimal dump of the input data.
CTRL+Z Undo the most recent command. Repeat to move backwards through the sequence
of commands entered to date, reversing the effect of each command. Not all
commands can be undone.
CTRL+X Cut the currently selected data.
CTRL+C Copy the currently selected data.
CTRL+V Paste the currently copied or cut data.
CTRL+SHIFT+V Paste the hexadecimal values of the currently copied or cut data into the input data
as text values.
CTRL+SHIFT+I Insert a nibble at the current pointer position. Each bit of the nibble is a 0.
CTRL+SHIFT+D Delete the nibble at the current pointer position. Each bit of the nibble is a 0.
CTRL+G Go to a specific byte offset.
CTRL+J Jump forward the number of bytes set in the Jump Amount dialog box.
CTRL+SHIFT+J Jump backward the number of bytes set in the Jump Amount dialog box.
CTRL+F Search for a string of data.
F3 Find the next occurrence of the search string.
