The color of requests whose responses didn't arrive yet, is set to a light grey.
The bold font weight of erroneous requests is removed.
There's a button to un-colorize or re-colorize all traced requests.
Let me say a few words on this subject.
Regarding 1: I often find myself quite annoyed of dozen of requests the browser issued but whose responses didn't arrive (and won't arrive anymore) since a redirect or whatever occurred in the meantime. These "response-less" requests are irrelevant but occur very noticeable because their color is a quite blackish grey.
By changing their color, one pays less attention to them.
Regarding 2: Erroneous requests appear often to be missing ico-files, fonts or other irrelevant content that end up in a status code 404. Since client (400-499) and server errors (500+) appear in red color (which is very flashy) they strike the eye anyways.
By removing the bold font weight, one - again - pays less attention to these almost always irrelevant requests:
Regarding 3: Sometimes the colorization of all traced requests can be overwhelming. Having the ability to un- and re-colorize the requests is a nice new option, I think:
By the way: The new icon shall depict a color drop. I hope this is recognizable. Creating an icon in these small dimensions is fairly challenging 😁
