Hi. Is there any way (on Windows) to configure the coloring rules or 
configuration so that the Colorize Conversation -> TCP option will 
exclude the three-way handshake, the teardown, and RST packets? I'd 
still like to see those colors display based on the coloring rules.

First disable the TCP SYN/FIN coloring rule, then modify the TCP 
coloring rule to say something like "tcp && !(tcp.flags.syn == 1)" to 
keep it from applying to packets with the SYN bit set.  That takes 
care of the first two parts of the three way handshake and can be 
expanded upon.  Do not to use rules like "tcp.flags.syn != 1" due to 
unintended consequences.

I probably misunderstood you.  You want those packets to follow the 
usual coloring rules and not be changed when colorizing a single 
conversation, right?  I don't think that's possible; someone would need 
to change the code that colorize by conversation.
