What's the issue you encountered?

8-byte aligned boundaries do not continue highlighting till the middle of the program, but 8+ byte long variables continue highlighting past that.

How can the issue be reproduced?

load a file and make a pattern where var A is aligned with 8 bytes, and var B is aligned with another 8 bytes.

8-byte aligned boundaries do not continue highlighting till the middle of the program, but 8+ byte long variables continue highlighting past that.

I am not sure what you mean by '8-byte boundaries highlighting till the middle of the program'. What role do 8+ long variables play? Are they also aligned to 8 byte boundaries? From the image the only variable aligned to 8-byte boundaries is at 0xB8 and it is 12 bytes long.

load a file and make a pattern where var A is aligned with 8 bytes, and var B is aligned with another 8 bytes.

Your description doesn't describe the method used to align variables to byte boundaries, where the variables need to be located, what their size should be or what expected behavior produces unexpected results.

Please post a simple example of code and some sample input data and state what it is you expect to see that fails to occur.
