I was thinking it would be nice to have the disassembler put field names in comments if mono is enabled. I tried to hook in with onPostDisassemble

Code:
dd = getVisibleDisassembler()
print("Syntax highlighting? "..tostring(dd.syntaxhighlighting))

function onPostDisasemble(sender, address, LastDisassembleData, result, description)
-- sender: Disassembler
-- address: integer
-- LastDisassembleData: Table
-- result: string
-- description: string
-- returns result, description
  print("Disasemble post at "..string.format("%X", address))
  return result, description
end

dd.OnPostDisassemble = onPostDisassemble
dd_data = dd.getLastDisassembleData()
print("Last Disassembled Address: "..string.format("%X", dd_data.address))
return dd_data


But I never see it print anything and the last disassembled address does change if I scroll a bit in the disassembly window. I've tried to use registerGlobalDisassembleOverride and it does get called, but it keeps getting called over and over for the same visible bytes and the disassembly windows just show "00" for bytes. Same for getVisibleDisassembler().OnDisassembleOverride:

Code:
getVisibleDisassembler().OnDisassembleOverride = function(sender, address, data)
  print(string.format("Disassembling %X", address))
  return "opcode", "description"
end



I'm assuming that is the right way to return "opcode, description" and that those would just appear in the opcode and comments columns in the disassembly window... How am I using these wrong?

onPostDisassemble needs to return opcode and description, and the LastDisassembleData field is also used

check out http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=604314

it doesn't let you change the comments part though, but perhaps you can use the disassemblerlines OnExtraLineRender override to write some info.

Or I guess you could place the extra data after the LastDisassembleData.parameters info

(I'll add a comments override for next version)
