Make use of the del key to be able to delete a line in the HTTP history

Hello, As you can see by the subject it is pretty easy and it's even surprising that it is not here by default. When we want to delete the reqs one by one and we quickly want to check if they are not useful, we need to always to Right click - Delete Item, which is really boring to do. Is it possible to just add the delete key to do that ?

Hi Batou, There is already a hotkey available to delete items. If you open up the Burp settings and navigate to User interface -> Hotkeys you will find the list of available hotkeys. Within here there is a hotkey entitled 'Delete item(s)' which can be configured and used to delete requests instead of using the right-click method. The following screenshot illustrates this for you: https://snipboard.io/pFyj3U.jpg
