The easiest part is to report the bugs :) >> * Multiple IP addresses should be separated with comma in the "Edit >> Interfaces Settings" window, I think. > Need to see how this haves with a lot of addresses. If not separated by comma I think we should align the addresses below each other. Right now they are aligned with "Interface:" and "IP address". >> * Should we use only one line in headings used in the interface list? >> This to save space for more interfaces in the list. > I wanted to see all IP-addresses, but showing only one line would save > space. Not sure. I was thinking about the headers, not the entries. Shorten the heading names and adding tooltips could be a solution. >> * The "Wireless Settings" button is not always enabled for my AirPcap >> device, and is sometimes enabled for my Ethernet device. > We don't have AirPcap devices and that support is most likely broken.

I think we should not show anything if we know the device has no IP address, but I don't know if we know. >> * "Capture packets in monitor mode" is enabled for devices not supporting >> this. > If there is a way to figure out if it is supported, we should handle that > correctly, > I agree. The old code used to work. While looking at the new code I find something which makes me think something is obvious broken: row.monitor_mode = caps->can_set_rfmon; row.monitor_mode is true if monitor mode is turned on. caps->can_set_rfmon is true if the interface supports monitor mode. >> * When manually selecting all interfaces in the list, should the >> checkbox "Capture on all interfaces" be automatically checked? > Hmm.

It would be more user friendly, as it leads to an inconsistent state. >> * I get wrong link-layer for some of my remote (rpcap) devices. This >> used to work before. > Hmm. This needs to be fixed. Can you provide some hints what is going > wrong? We haven't seen this in our testing. I'm starting rpcapd on the same machine and use 'localhost' as host. I'll have a closer look to see if I can find more clues. And I have some more issues: * The welcome page is not refreshed after change in interface options preferences (changing description etc.) * The "Start" button is sometimes disabled even when selected an interface, and sometimes enabled even when no interfaces are selected. Try this to observe the issue: Select "Capture Options" from the welcome page, turn on "Capture on all interfaces" and turn off "Capture on all interfaces" again, then select capture for a simple interface. * "Capture all in promiscuous mode" can be checked even if not all interfaces have this. The checkbox should be un-toggled. * Tooltips for ok button in "Edit Interfaces Settings" is wrong, it does not start a capture process. -- Stig Bjørlykke ___________________________________________________________________________ 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-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
