Is there a way to clear the capture window in Wireshark without restarting the capture or re-applying the filter? It's difficult to tell one set of traffic from another without looking very closely at the timestamp.
I don't see a way to clear the window, but hitting 'Restart the running live capture' seems to work.
You can therefore clear the window in WireShark by doing one of the following:
Clicking on the green shark-fin to the right of the red Stop button
Clicking on Capture > Restart
Hitting Ctrl-R.

Possible workaround w/o stopping/restarting capture
Suppose the last packet captured so far is the xth packet. Just apply the filter frame.number>x and everything disappears :)
