Hi,
You can also use proto_add_bits_item()

Subject: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Dissecting a field that has non-octet bit boundaries

Hi Richard,

I had the same problem recently, that I solved using a bitmask in one of the register_info fields. It looked like that :

{
&hf_protocol_id,
             {
                 "ID", "protocol.id",
                 FT_UINT8, BASE_DEC_HEX,
                 NULL, 0x1,
                 NULL, HFILL
             },
         }

This should display only the first bit of a byte.

Hope that helps,

Regards

Yannick
