Hello Martin,

Radar already has this feature readily available when tracing Radiator.

Use the Radar Trace window, set the Filter to be User-Name= == whatever and 
then only requests that are relevant to User-NAme whatever will appear in the 
trace log window.

You can also do something similar with the Raditor PacketTrace parameter, 
which allows you to restrict tracing of packets to only ones that pass 
through a particular clause.

Cheers.
