Title: Optimization - accumulative filters?
Would it also be "easily" possible with the new packet list to freeze the displayed packets in a view. One could then have multiple views in a dropdown list (with "whole file" as a default view). Then the next display filter entered will work on the view, instead of the whole file. That would be really reallu useful :-) But... I haven't digged into the new packet list yet to know whether I'm now opening up cool posibilities or just wishing for myracles ;-)
 
Cheers,

Hi,
Would it bebeneficial to have a second filter option "box" in the main filter toolbar that only filters on the displayed packets?

With the new packet list it may not be so difficult to implement as it has a record of displayed packets and a new filter could be applied

To only those packets.
Regards
Anders
