Display Type Toolbar — Plugin for Cheat Engine

Lightweight plugin for Cheat Engine that adds a compact display toolbar directly inside the Memory Viewer.

When analyzing memory, switching between byte, word, dword, qword, float, double, or text encoding modes usually requires opening context menus. This slows down the workflow, especially during debugging, memory inspection, or reverse engineering.

This plugin solves that problem by adding fast one-click access to the most useful Memory Viewer display modes, text encoding options, and related view controls.

⚡ What the Plugin Does ⚡

Memory Viewer Display Type Toolbar integrates directly into the Cheat Engine Memory Viewer and adds a responsive toolbar below the hexadecimal view area.

The toolbar allows you to quickly switch between different display formats without opening additional menus. For example, you can instantly change the view to 1-byte HEX, 4-byte DEC, Float, Double, ASCII, UTF-8, or UTF-16.

In addition, the plugin uses original Cheat Engine menu actions internally. This means the toolbar does not replace native functionality — it simply makes existing Memory Viewer options faster and easier to access.

The plugin also supports multiple Memory Viewer windows and automatically syncs button states with the currently selected Cheat Engine display mode.
