Unfortunately, I haven't been following development much lately.
I see that we have a packet comment feature now. Is there a way
to remove a comment entirely? I envision the clear button in the
"Edit or Add Packet Comments" could do this instead of just
clearing the text buffer, but I see that functionality would
probably have to go down into the new packet list code and further
into the frame data's opt_comment variable.
If you press the clear button and then save the file and reload the
saved file I think the comment should be gone.
I'd been thinking about this some too; one of the first few things I
wanted to do in playing with it was to Delete the comment (from the
file, from the packet). >I imagine users will want to too; I think
leaving an empty comment feels like a workaround (even if it really
deletes the comment from the file).
I just didn't (and probably won't soon) have time to do anything
about it.
Fixed in revision 41895.
What I was (as a user) looking for was a "Delete comment" option
somewhere in the UI. Clearing the comment causing the comment to be
deleted works, but will users expect it? (Or should they learn to
expect it?)
Not sure what you are after here:
- Delete all packet comments.
- Delete the currently selected packet comment.
For me it seems natural to go to the edit menu to delete the comment,
however that menu should probably be
accessible from the middle pane popup window.
