For the UNKNOWN initial value scan type
How about adding option of "Changed to value A" and "Changed to value B" and "Changed to value C" option?

Let me elaborate:

When try to find something tricky, it usually is much easier to rotate it between a few values. With the current UNKNOWN initial value type, you can only alternate between two values (by using Changed value)

I have done some scans that took many rounds of "Changed value" filter, and the locating efficiency is quite low, this is assuming the cases where we have no idea how does a value change. If there is method to check a value between a few (2-3) unknown values, it will be a very useful scan. Hope this makes sense.

1. Use unknown scan.
2. Scan again and save scan results.
3. Scan again and save scan results.

Use "compare to saved scan" to compare your value to 1st, 2nd or 3rd scan that is saved.

Hi, when I open the tab I only see "Compare to first scan" at the tab,
where is the "Save scan results" and how to compare with 1st, 2nd, 3rd?

thanks

File->Save scan results.

And if you have saved scan results, you will see the option to compare to them too.

I don't think it is strange, most people are using to compare to first scan anyway. But as you see, it can be used to scan more effectively too.
