Hey everyone,

I grabbed the latest Wireshark-win64-1.11.3-2224-gdf52f81.exe install.

Made a lua script for decoding a simple protocol header and I am getting:

User Datagram Protocol

<lua fake item>

Blah Protocol

Basically my lua is

    local p_blah = Proto("blah","Blah Protocol");

    blah.fields = {... }

    function p_blah.dissector(buf, pinfo, root)

      local t = root:add(p_blah, buf(0,BLAH_HEADER_SIZE))

      t:add(f_item1, buf(0,4))

      -- root:set_text("What?")

    end

Now if I do the root:set_text("What?"), it changes from <lua fake item> to <Text item>

User Datagram Protocol

<Text item>

Blah Protocol

The Blah protocol decodes perfectly, so that's fine. Just curious how to correctly add the nodes so that it doesn't give this extra row of fake lua ?

p.s. Sorry on light details, I can't share the specs.

Cheers,
