Thanks for mitmproxy!

Suppose I have set an interception filter and I am viewing a live packet. I am about to edit it, etc.

But when a new packet arrives, the text UI moves to the new packet! I have lost the packet that I was looking a few seconds ago.

Is this an issue in mitmproxy or am doing things the wrong way?

Could you clarify what you mean by packet? Are you talking about HTTP requests or about the new non-HTTP TCP streams? The UI/UX for the latter is very much work-in-progress.

I am talking about the HTTP requests.

The currently focused flow should never change when a new one comes in. If that's happening to you, please file a bug over on GitHub or ping me on our dev Slack and we'll get this fixed ASAP. :)

Do you have by any chance enabled focus to follow new requests? Keyboard shortcut Shift + F. Although it's disabled by default (IIRC), you may have enabled it by accident.
