Selecting this tells Wireshark to display the time stamps in date and time of day format, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

	Note!
	The fields "Time of Day", "Date and Time of Day", "Seconds Since Beginning of Capture", "Seconds Since Previous Captured Packet" and "Seconds Since Previous Displayed Packet" are mutually exclusive.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps in time of day format, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps in seconds since beginning of capture format, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps in seconds since previous captured packet format, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps in seconds since previous displayed packet format, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps in seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps with the precision given by the capture file format used, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

	Note!
	The fields "Automatic", "Seconds" and "...seconds" are mutually exclusive.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps with a precision of one second, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

Selecting this tells Wireshark to display time stamps with a precision of one second, decisecond, centisecond, millisecond, microsecond or nanosecond, see Section 6.11, “Time display formats and time references”.

This item allows you to trigger a name resolve of the current packet only, see Section 7.7, “Name Resolution”.

This item allows you to control whether or not Wireshark translates MAC addresses into names, see Section 7.7, “Name Resolution”.

This item allows you to control whether or not Wireshark translates network addresses into names, see Section 7.7, “Name Resolution”.

This item allows you to control whether or not Wireshark translates transport addresses into names, see Section 7.7, “Name Resolution”.

This item allows you to control whether or not Wireshark should colorize the packet list.

	Note!
	Enabling colorization will slow down the display of new packets while capturing / loading capture files.

This item allows you to specify that Wireshark should scroll the packet list pane as new packets come in, so you are always looking at the last packet. If you do not specify this, Wireshark simply adds new packets onto the end of the list, but does not scroll the packet list pane.

Zoom into the packet data (increase the font size).

Zoom out of the packet data (decrease the font size).

Set zoom level back to 100% (set font size back to normal).

Resize all column widths so the content will fit into it.

	Note!
	Resizing may take a significant amount of time, especially if a large capture file is loaded.

This menu item expands the currently selected subtree in the packet details tree.

Wireshark keeps a list of all the protocol subtrees that are expanded, and uses it to ensure that the correct subtrees are expanded when you display a packet. This menu item expands all subtrees in all packets in the capture.

This menu item collapses the tree view of all packets in the capture list.

This menu item brings up a submenu that allows you to color packets in the packet list pane based on the addresses of the currently selected packet. This makes it easy to distinguish packets belonging to different conversations. Section 9.3, “Packet colorization”.

These menu items enable one of the ten temporary color filters based on the currently selected conversation.

This menu item clears all temporary coloring rules.

This menu item opens a dialog window in which a new permanent coloring rule can be created based on the currently selected conversation.

This menu item brings up a dialog box that allows you to color packets in the packet list pane according to filter expressions you choose. It can be very useful for spotting certain types of packets, see Section 9.3, “Packet colorization”.

This menu item brings up the selected packet in a separate window. The separate window shows only the tree view and byte view panes.

This menu item allows you to reload the current capture file.
