Description

This is more of an opinionated UX suggestion than a feature request. If the behavior is intentional, please feel free to close this 🙂

When viewing a list of requests or responses with the details on the right panel, it would be very helpful if the focus stayed selected on the selected section.

Screen Recording

For example, here I am adding a breakpoint on api.github.com/graphql requests → I want to inspect the difference in the request body across multiple requests and execute the request after inspecting.

In the main Proxyman window, the selected tab (eg: Request Body, Response Body) stays selected when moving across different requests, so it feels unintuitive when the selection doesn't persist in this window.

Thanks for the video @raxityo. I understand the problem with the Request/Response Tab in the Breakpoint.

Going to fix it now 👍

@raxityo let's try this Beta build: https://proxyman.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/beta/Proxyman_4.0.0_New_UI_for_Breakpoint.dmg

I've improved the layout of the Breakpoint, it's now easier to use 👍

It also fixes the bug you've mentioned 👍
