Hi, This 'colorize' is mainly intended to mark changeover into another protocol. Usually you see this at the top level (from the root), but occasionally when a protocol is encapsulated (some ITU protocols show this). As long as your 'structures' are at the top level, these could be considered valid use if they are truly independant, otherwise it's just poor style.
Well the protocol is designed as it is. And I think you agree that it would be an abuse to highlight structure starts similar (but not identically) as a protocol. Does anybody see any other way to help the eyes to find the next structure in a complex packet structure? -- Andy ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
