How to clear timeline selection in Chrome dev tools?

Question

How to clear selectin on the timeline? If I do double click then selection will be expanded to the end of the timeline, but new request still will be filtered out. So only close and reopen dev tools window works for me.

Answer 1

Double Click the marker OR Mouse Wheel Scroll Down

Answer 2

Summary

Toggle "Stop Network recording" off and on again to reset the timeline selector. Note: This clears previous network requests, which is similar to @Raf's suggestion to close and re-open dev tools. Toggling "Stop Network recording" is slightly better than closing and re-opening dev tools because it doesn't clear/reset other dev tools context (like Recordings on the Recording tab).

Detail

"Double-clicking" doesn't work

The first animation below shows how "double click the marker or mouse-wheel scroll down" (from the other answer), doesn't work (as @Raf --the OP-- says). It seems to work (double-clicking expands the timeline selection), but any subsequent requests appear outside the timeline selection.

"Toggle Stop/Start Network recording" works, but clears past requests

The second animation below shows how toggling "Stop/Start Network recording" will reset the selector; subsequent requests are all inside the timeline selection.

This clears any previous requests (like closing-and-reopening dev tools will do) but this approach is slightly better -- because any active "Recordings" on "Recorder" tab continue to record.
