Thank you! I think that we are all neutral on the UI details... (whether
it's going to be a separate dialog or on the same main screen) - just give
us some real-time statistics on what we capture (high-level breakdown
TCP/UDP/etc).

Thanks in advance

Guy - Any reason why the dialog is not in the "new interface"?

I seem to remember that this was discussed in the past, but I don't
remember what the reason given was.

It's very common to choose not to show the packets in "real-time" in the
UI (to avoid memory issues/crashes) - but we still want to see some
real-time statistics... any chance you can add it in the next version or
provide alternative method?

It might be possible to provide something - it might end up being a screen
that replaces the welcome screen but isn't the 3-pane packet display
screen, rather than a separate dialog, using the stop button in the toolbar.
