I have a large binary file about 2 GB. I open it with UltraEdit in Hex Edit mode, and try to drag the vertical scroll bar to set caret to a specific address like 0x12345678
or some other address. But when I drag a little, the address moves a lot! The larger the file, the harder to navigate to an address.
Is there an easy way to do so?
Clicking in menu Search on menu item Goto or pressing Ctrl+G opens for a file currently displayed in hex editing mode the Hex Goto dialog.
In this dialog the byte offset to jump to can be entered in decimal or in hexadecimal when entered string starts with 0x as in your example.
On first Goto you have to wait some seconds as UltraEdit (v22.10) parses the entire file for line terminators for line number indication although that should not be done for a binary file opened in hex edit mode as there are no line numbers displayed in hex edit mode. I have reported this issue already to IDM Computer Solutions, Inc., but this bug is not fixed up to now. Further Goto executions are much faster as no useless parsing for line terminators anymore.
