In my day-job I often have to compare traces from multiple devices. If I am
lucky the number of devices is only two. If I am unlucky it will be four or
more. And if I'm really unlucky half of the devices are on the east coast of
Australia and the other half on the west coast of the USA. And loosely
time-synced.
So these traces are not only 17 hours apart, they are also a random amount of
minutes and seconds apart. Trying to keep track of what happened then is a
great challenge. Being able to set time-references helps a lot, but not as much
as if I could just resync the time in the traces and have everything in the
same time, starting at the same time, ending at the same time etc. Sanity would
wait for me around the corner!
The submitted patch will add a new feature called Shift Time. A small
dialogbox, enter a value like [-][[h:]m:]s[.d] and the time is changed. Want to
move 121 seconds instead of 2 minutes and 1 second? No problem neither. Shift
forward, shift backwards. It is all there under Edit -> Shift Time.
So what does not work?
Something in GTK which I don't understand:
(wireshark:4837): Gtk-WARNING **: Shift Time: missing action /Shift Time
(wireshark:4837): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_menu_item_get_submenu: assertion
`GTK_IS_MENU_ITEM (menu_item)' failed
(wireshark:4837): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_container_foreach: assertion
`GTK_IS_CONTAINER (container)' failed
I have no idea what it is trying to tell me besides "Something is wrong and I
can't tell you what". If somebody could help me with that, I would really
appreciate it.
