Enhancement: Filtering

[maefromm]

Hi, would like to make a suggested enhancement and not sure if this is the best place. I like using this UI however we have a lot of noise on the log files and team finds using rqt_console to be cumbersome to use when we need to filter (select/deselect) topics, etc.

Is there a way to have a multi-selection listbox (listing the topics vertically) instead of the horizontal checkbox list to select the nodes? Also could you also have the option to include specific topics/messages using dropdown list?

Thank you for your help!

Improving the plugin and adding additional features is always possible. Please consider to provide a pull request to add features which are useful for your use case. In case of more complex changes it might be good to describe the proposed changes in detail beforehand (e.g. with a sketch of the desired UI or similar). That approach will make sure that the result is generally applicable and can be merged easily.
