Notes:
Hidden elements
will also disappear from the other views based on the hidden parameter chosen
(e.g. if a device is hidden, the device icon and connections will not be seen on
the Network Topology view and its relevant messages will be removed from the
Message Sequence view, the current Message View tabs and new ones will not be
added to the Message View – if relevant, etc.).
If selecting to hide a
specific Protocol Layer, the relevant vertical line that represents that layer
in the Message Sequence View will be shown as a dashed-line (see also chapter
7).
Pressing on the ‘Select’ or ‘Unselect
All’ icons in the ‘Hide Elements’ window (

select and unselect all the devices in the form list respectively.
The hidden feature can be also set by right clicking on a relevant area in the Message View (Hide/Unhide Messages) or Network and/or Devices View (Hide/Unhide Devices).
Right clicking on the vertical axis and choosing 'Unhide All' will show all elements back into the Time View as well as to the other Perytons™ Protocol Analyzer view sections.

to be hidden, pressing the Hide/Show Elements icon

show non hidden only elements in the Time, Message and Network/Devices
