[size=large]When browsing in memory viewer (MV), I always make the "address" of each line end with number 0. like this:
00400080
00400090
004000A0
004000B0
...

But whenever I find an address (say 0545BC1C) and browse its memory region, the MV use 0545BC1C instead of 0545BC10 as the start position. So I have to add address 0545BC10 to addressList, and browse its memory region.

I watched an old video teaching people how to cheat in WarCraft 3 using CE5.6 and OD, where the uploader scrolls up/down 1 Byte in the MV quite often, so I know there must be a way to do it. The video uploader is nowhere to be found any more, I can't find anything about this operation in the HELP document either, and I tried pressing every most possible key-mouse combination yet to no avail.

So, please tell me how to do this little trick if anyone knows. Thanks!

Press the arrow left and arrow right keys to move 1 byte backwards or forwards respectively in memory viewer.

Hi, STN, Thanks for your replying. Maybe I didn't make it clear so you misunderstood me, sorry for that.

I mean, when you use the wheel to scroll up/down, the address bar in the left side of MV will slide for 0x40 Bytes by default, right? Now I'm asking how to make it silde for 0x01 Byte.

I made 2 gif pics and put it to postimg.org/gallery/92hfgp9y, the 2nd one in the right is how scrolling up/down by wheel, and address bar slide by the distance of 0x40; and the 1st one in the left is what I want to achieve.

I hope this is clearer. If you need more elaborate descriptions, please let me know.

You could right-click and choose "goto", then input 545bc10 if it really matters that much to you.

Try to hold CTRL, ALT or SHIFT or a combination of them while scrolling.
If that doesn't work try to look at the sourcecode of ce.
Did Cheatengine really have such a feature??

I think darkbyte reworked the scrollbar and the memoryview control some time ago, so maybe that feature was removed?

Shift scrolling has been added for next version. (which should come out soon)
In the meantime just do as stn says, when the hexview has been focused (and not in edit mode) just press the left and right keyboard buttons instead

Yep, ctrl+G is a good function. And I usually do so if I only need to view that memory block once. Adding the address to the addressList makes it a bit easier for rechecking.

I can't double post, so:

Besides what you suggested, I even tried ctrl, alt, shift + arrow keys, w/a/s/d, 8426 in numpad, and holding function keys like HOME, END, INSERT... while scrolling. None works.

Since our mighty creator suggests it's a COMING-SOON feature, I guess it's not really in the original copy of CE5.6 (or even 6.3), but more possibly an add-on function made by that video uploader himself.

As for what STN said, I don't have any problem in scrolling up/down just 1 line or selecting the address 1 Byte before/after the current one. I just want to change the FORMATION of hex data so that I got a better view of it. (some times 2-Bytes data, 4-Bytes data and even 8-Bytes data are close to each other, and by browsing the 2-Bytes data's memory the longer data are cut into halves in different lines, and that's what really bothers me)

Well, thanks for the correction! Though I don't really know the difference... (We view memory in that window, so I supposed it's called mem viewer Very Happy )
