Navigation bar cannot jump to addresses (but can jump to symbol names)

Title: Navigation bar cannot jump to addresses (but can jump to symbol names)

Environment:

  • OS: win10 64
  • Cutter version: 2.5.0
  • Hardware: x86-64 CPU

Description: The navigation bar (address bar) at the top of Cutter fails to seek when entering a raw address (e.g., 0x401000 or 401000). Pressing Enter does nothing: the disassembly view does not change, and no error is shown. However, entering a symbol name (e.g., main, entry0) works correctly and jumps to the corresponding location.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open any binary in Cutter (e.g., a simple ELF executable or a larger one).
  2. Wait for initial analysis to complete (if enabled).
  3. Click on the navigation bar at the top.
  4. Type a valid address such as 0x401000 (or any address present in the binary) and press Enter.
  5. Observe that the view does not change.
  6. Now type a symbol name, e.g., main or entry0, and press Enter. This works as expected.

Expected behavior: Typing an address and pressing Enter should seek to that address and update the view, just like typing a symbol name.

Actual behavior: Only symbol names are accepted. Addresses are ignored; the view remains unchanged and no error message appears.

Additional information:

  • I have verified the address is valid by using the G shortcut (Go to address dialog), which works correctly and seeks to the same address.
  • The same binary loaded in Rizin command-line allows s 0x401000 to seek successfully.
  • I tried both 0x401000 and 401000 (without 0x), neither works.
  • This occurs with every binary I have tested, not just one specific file.
  • The issue persists across restarts of Cutter.
  • ARM64 build, Work in the same way.
