When using VA Memory View to debug a program, I found RSP(or ESP) will automatically be displayed in the middle of this window after executing a statement by default.

However, sometimes I wish this window can be "locked" ,so it can keep displaying an offset address(e.g., RSP+0x680) while executing some statements, in order to avoid scrolling up and down again and again to check the offset address.

So could VA Memory View be "Locked"?

To actually answer your question, no the view can't be locked. But you can put an actual address in there rather than rely on an RSP offset that changes depending on the value of RSP.

You can type in the Address edit control where RSP/ESP appear by default. The text you type there is supposed to stay there. I often leave it as ESP-4. You can also put an explicit address in there so that as you change threads the memory view doesn't change to reflect ESP/RSP of the current thread.
