This is an enhancement request, when you select Find references to --> Selected Address(es) it will search in the current region/section only.

So for example, if you have 2 sections .text and .code both with Execution right, and an instruction in .text is calling a routine in .code, this call instruction won't be found.
A workaround for this is to copy the routine's address, then select Search for --> Current Module --> Constant and paste the address.

I think it would be more convenient for this search type (addresses references) to be performed on all sections with Execution right, so feel completely free to close this if you think it's inconsistent with current search behavior, or not worth the bother.

Yeah I think that's a good idea!

I totally forgot about #379, basically this request is a duplicate of it, very sorry about that.

This one is still not implemented, all other search types have section / module / all modules options except this one, which was the original request of #379

Ah okay I'll leave this one open instead of #397 then.

There's a workaround for this:
1- Copy the desired/required address to clipboard
2- Right click in the Disassembly view -> Search for -> Current Module -> Constant -> paste the address

I guess you can close this now if you want.
