At a high level -- can you summarize your request?
If I come across an event such as a bash being called from a process I'd like to be able to filter to find all other forks that the parent process executed. Alternatively if I have the event parent process in event viewer, I'd like to be able to see the children of that event.

Example: here I have sentineld_updater calling two bash scripts:

I'd like an easy way to be able to view all subprocesses from this parent/initiating process. Here is the event metadata I can view as well as then the initiating process:
image
image

What is the current alternative solution?
Identify the event as well as its parent and then use the search to try and narrow down events containing that name

@AndrewMohawk I completely agree! Bringing child proc info to the foreground is something that I've had implemented before, but wanted to wait to think about how to display the telemetry more. EXEC -> FORK -> EXEC or something like that chain. Hopefully you'll see something like this feature implemented soon!
