the new event viewer does not handle dead procs/threads. One way to do so is display a darker display and provide a button to remove it from the view.
Where do people think the button should go ? Options: * to the left the the time line underneath the label. * in a tool bar. * to the right of the time line which will cause the timelines to shrink to the right a little to provide space. We could also have the buttons present at all times to remove dead threads and uninteresting procs ? Thoughts ?

Created attachment 1646 [details] Frysk Monitor: Removing terminated threads What do people think of the button on the right hand side ?
Add a way to indicate the life time of a thread/proc: suggestions: - draw the life time area brighter than the dead area. - cut off the line in the button with a couple black ticks * see what project management software does to represent a lifetime of a task (gant). 2007-03-26 Sami Wagiaalla <swagiaal@redhat.com> * test/TestPrototypeCopying.java: Added test for copying of filter boolean value. * test/TestObserverSaveLoad.java: Added test for filter boolean value. * gladedir/procpop.glade: Added "Observer Discription" feild to Edit Observer Dialog. 2007-03-26 Sami Wagiaalla <swagiaal@redhat.com> * eventviewer/TimeLineStartEvent.java: New file. * eventviewer/TimeLineEndEvent.java: New file. * eventviewer/TimeLine.java: Added button for removing timelines. * eventviewer/ProcTimeLine.java (getGuiProc): made it public. * eventviewer/ProcBox.java: Added handling for removing dead threads.
