Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Can't Change Time Display Format

[mark kwon <markjkwon@xxxxxxxxx>]

 hi!

I have a problem with wireshark and ethereal that started some time back:

I cannot change the time display format.  No matter what I select it always will display "Date and Time of Day".   

When I switch to one of the other formats, e.g. "seconds since previous displayed packets", it gives me the progress bar and completes, but the time format stays in "Date and Time of Day".  

I am running 1.2.1 + XP SP2 and seems to be a problem no matter which version I use. 

This happens with captures that were captured locally as well as captures from other machines. 

I see the same problem in ethereal when I launch it.  

I've uninstalled winpcap, wireshark and ethereal and reinstalled 1.2.1 with same results.  

I actually lost this functionality some time ago but never really needed it until now.  

Please advise on a fix.
