[closed] Feature request: flip the “Packet Details” window….

0

One little feature I would love in Wireshark; a simple graphical change. In the “packet details” window, I would like to flip the order upside down, so it matches the way we typically view the OSI and TCP/IP protocol stack; Frame on the bottom, then packet, then segment, then application headers. As a teacher, I believe it could help my students correlate the models to the real world we see when we sniff.

I just registered and I only see a way to report a bug, not request a feature.

Proceed as if you're reporting a bug, and then from the "Severity" drop-down, select "Enhancement."
