Change Diplay Properties
By right clicking the mouse inside the memory window, the Shortcut Menu will appear. From this menu, all display properties can be set. (The shortcut menu is also available by pressing Shift-F10.) Changing the display properties affect only the active memory window.

Select Data Format
The memory contents can be viewed as hexadecimal, decimal or binary data. Choose the desired format from the shortcut menu. Selecting None will hide the numeric column.

Show ASCII
Displays memory contents as ASCII characters in a separate column. Left click inside it to position the cursor inside the ASCII column. Values typed will be written to memory as ASCII characters. (Hint: To view the ASCII column only, choose Data Format None as explained below to hide the numeric display).

Show as word
Collect memory contents into 16-bit words.

Bytes per line
Opens the dialog to specify the number of bytes displayed per line. Use this function to select a suitable number of bytes per line depending on your screen size and personal viewing preference. Even numbers from 2 to 32 allowed.

Swap Bytes
When viewing instructions in Program Memory, it is convenient to use "Swap Bytes" to display memory contents as [highbyte:lowbyte]. For Program Memory, 'Swap Bytes' is active by default.

For constants and strings stored in Program Memory, it is usually more convenient to display memory contents as [lowbyte:highbyte], as it makes data appear in the order it is (usually) read by the software.

This option is available for Program Memory only.

View Byte Address
When working with constant tables stored in Program memory, it is more convenient to display the address actually used to retrieve data from the Program Memory. This is done by selecting Byte Address from the shortcut menu.

This option is available for Program Memory only.
