This how timestamped text looks like. Very intuitive.



And this how it looks when switching to hex mode, difficult to follow the timestamps and the byte grouping. Any thought on making the hex view similar to the text view above, with a separate line for each timestamp, hex data on the left side and ASCII in a right side bar?

... one more thing, displaying the hex of the auto generated timestamp is confusing, and displaying them as clear text will be more useful IMO.

HI,

when using timestamps in the regular display, they are actually added to the received data and stored in the receive buffer. I.e. the timestamps become part of the received data. This is why they hex view shows them in hex format.
However, if you capture received data to a text file, then you have more flexibility when it comes to formatting the data. The timestamps are directly written to the text file, and then the received data is written to the file in whatever format you choose.
