Thank you Dark Byte Cool

Just bring up lua engine and paste this in, replace rax/eax with register you wish to highlight.
Code:
function f(sender, address, LastDisassembleData, result, description)
  LastDisassembleData.opcode=string.upper(LastDisassembleData.opcode)
  LastDisassembleData.parameters=string.upper(LastDisassembleData.parameters)
  LastDisassembleData.parameters=string.gsub(LastDisassembleData.parameters,'RAX',string.format('{C%.06x}RAX{N}',math.floor(math.random()*0xffffff)))
  LastDisassembleData.parameters=string.gsub(LastDisassembleData.parameters,'EAX',string.format('{C%.07x}EAX{N}',math.floor(math.random()*0xffffff)))

  return result,description
end

getVisibleDisassembler().OnPostDisassemble=f


I am going to start learning lua and make a menu as an exercise, should be fun.

If you don't know what this is, this image explains it. Ollydbg has this feature where you could focus on one register for quicker reading of the code, now it is in CE too except much better Very Happy

Here's my implementation of this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/g4js2feemqssaim/DisassemblerHighlight.lua?dl=0

It adds a menu option to all memory viewer windows, the highlight is currently global not local to each window.

If you want a static color instead of random ones then inside the .lua file you'll see this line
Code:
--local staticColor = 0xAE33AE


simply uncomment it and set it to whatever color value you like (packed RGB color in little endian format so BGR, and before anyone complains that's how CE has the values, not how I necessarily chose to do it and I just didn't do anything to make it match previously set expectations of how color should work).

edit: September 1, 2017 - update for memory record paste bug.

fixed a bug in my script that didn't use lowercase and changed lua pattern check from characters to alphanumeric. So previously using "1C" to highlight a specific offset/value would cause an error, now it won't. Dropbox so same url, just redownload.
