Setting Highlight Colours
Ranges of bytes can be highlighted with a chosen colour to help with categorising them.
As shown in the screenshot below, simply select a range of bytes in the hex view, right click on them and choose a colour under the "Set Highlight" context sub-menu.
Custom Highlight Colours
The highlight colours can be changed in the application preferences window (applies to newly opened/created files) or by clicking "Edit highlight colours..." in the "Set Highlight" context menu (applies to the current file).
