What about a feature which allows us to
hide all marked packets
or
show only marked packets?
Best regards

Hi list,
I'd like to implement packet deletion. for many things deeting
packets
is *very* similar to marking and unmarking packets. I however have
some questions, so I list some statements below:
1. If I delete a marked packet, I should unmark it too.
2. All (context) menu items on a deleted packet must be disabled,
except for undeletion.
3. If a deleted packet is selected, its dissection tree must not be
shown.
4. Deleting packets in a capture may change the way a capture is
dissected. For example, if I delete a WSP redirect packet, then the
redirection conversation will not be built if the packets are
processed again.
5. Because of 4. we may want to have a "redissect" button be active
whenever we suspect something will change dissection.
6. Deleted packets "never" match a display filter.
Comments are welcome!
What do you mean with packet deletion?
I think he means to mark them as deleted.
Do you want to simply hide the packets, or really remove them from the
capture file?
I don't think it will be easy to delete them from the capture file. We
will have to write the capture file out again to do this.
