[Feature] Section Separators for Bookmarks

Open TurtleP opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

What feature would you like to see?

It'd be nice to have sections that we can label and/or colorize that hold bookmarks. This way, it would be easier to organize groups of data, like structs, within a binary file.

How will this feature be useful to you and others?

Mentioned prior, it would help with organizing bookmarks, especially when there's a lot of them. Given this example:

I would like to separate "root.rpx"'s data from everything else and be able to label the other group of data as I wish.

Request Type

  • [ ] I can provide a PoC for this feature or am willing to work on it myself and submit a PR

I feel like at this point you want to start using the pattern language intead of making individual bookmarks.

I can maybe add some categories that you can assign your bookmarks to but generally I'd avoid using bookmarks for decoding entire files manually

Yeah took me a good bit to realize the pattern editor was what I'd wanted and how to use it.

It'd still be neat to separate things, though, if someone is doing some quick things before noticing multiple patterns they could add in the editor.
