Unfortunately, I haven't been following development much lately. I
see that we have a packet comment feature now. Is there a way to
remove a comment entirely? I envision the clear button in the "Edit
or Add Packet Comments" could do this instead of just clearing the
text buffer, but I see that functionality would probably have to go
down into the new packet list code and further into the frame data's
opt_comment variable.
If you press the clear button and then save the file and reload the
saved file I think the comment should be gone.
I'd been thinking about this some too; one of the first few things I wanted to do
in playing with it was to Delete the comment (from the file, from the packet).
>I imagine users will want to too; I think leaving an empty comment feels like
a workaround (even if it really deletes the comment from the file).
I just didn't (and probably won't soon) have time to do anything about it.
Fixed in revision 41895.
What I was (as a user) looking for was a "Delete comment" option
somewhere in the UI. Clearing the comment causing the comment to be
deleted works, but will users expect it? (Or should they learn to
expect it?)
