Research direction

Start by locating the RAW view entry point and its existing display or rendering tests. Define how the option should expose DWORD, QWORD, Float, and other types, then verify that the RAW view transforms and displays the selected interpretation correctly.

Description

Component: UI Effort: Low Impact: Low

In the RAW view there should be an option to transform the data to display it as different types (DWORD/QWORD/Float/Etc.). I think something like you have in WinDbg will be fine.
