Feature Request: color rows associated to a regex

[elbae]

Hi, thank you for this extension! I would like to propose a new feature: color the rows associated to a specific regex.

Basically, in the Options tab > New Regex it is possible to configure a new regex with the fields

• Regex
• Description

and in this section a color picker field would be included like the one already present in Proxy / HTTP History.

Then in the Logger tab, the rows matching the regex would be colored with the chosen color. Example:

Hi @elbae, thank you for the suggestion.

At the moment, we are finishing the latest addition before releasing v4.0.0, which will bring many improvements overall.

I'll give this a try after this release. In the meantime, do you already have in mind a specific workflow that would benefit from this addition? I usually sort the list by regex to accomplish something similar.

Hi @beryxz , thank you for your feedback.

Not really, in my case I wanted to quickly highlight some regex rows.

Are you also planning to include a filtering option for Logger, based on Regex name? Let's say I want to see only output for this specific regex without clearing the logs.

Not really, in my case I wanted to quickly highlight some regex rows.

Hypothetically, if a regex's color were to be changed after a scan, the items already present in the Logger list would not be updated. This is because, as of now, the items in the list don't directly reference the regex in the regexes list.

Highlighting would then be helpful only for new custom regexes. Otherwise, a filtering option would be more appropriate if you were seeking to highlight some specific regexes without clearing the list.

We decided to add a search bar to filter the logger results. I created a separate issue, #57, to keep track of it.
