Packet got different color when tracking on different computer

0

Hi, When I open a captured .pcap packet on different computer,

it gives me a different colored packet,

for example, if I want to track a specify IPv4 TCP packet,

Computer A gave me a green background color for that packet,

but computer B gave me a black background color for that packet...

I am sure that both of the computer are using a default settings and I've no idea what make this happened...

Can anyone give me some advice of how to solve this problem ?

Thank you.

On both computers, of the same packet, open the frame line in the packet details pane. There you'll find, in square brackets, which coloring rule is applied to that packet. If they are the same go look at the color configuration of that rule. Somewhere there's a difference I presume.
