[Bug]: Trace Viewer: hovering over network request no longer highlights its timeframe on the timeline #40949

@semaphoreTest

Description

@semaphoreTest

Version

1.59.1

Steps to reproduce

  1. Run any test with tracing enabled
  2. Open the trace with: npx playwright show-trace trace.zip
  3. Go to the Network tab
  4. Hover over any network/API request row

Expected behavior

The timeline at the top highlights or marks the timeframe corresponding to the hovered network request, allowing visual correlation between the request and when it occurred in the test execution. Like in the version before the redesign.

Actual behavior

Hovering over a network request row has no effect on the timeline. The timeframe of the request is not highlighted or indicated anywhere on the timeline.

Additional context

This behavior was previously working. Related issues #27176 and #30915
discuss action-to-network filtering changes, but this is a different
interaction: hovering a network request row should highlight its timeframe
on the timeline. These are separate features and the referenced issues do
not cover this specific case.
