1Password Mini - can tab on to username field, but not password field - why not?

What I'd like to be able to do:
1. Type command \ (1Password Mini opens)
2. Type tab (username is selected)
3. Type tab (password is selected)
4. Type return (password is copied)

What actually happens:
1. Type command \ (1Password Mini opens)
2. Type tab (username is selected)
3. Type tab (item is selected)

With an item open in 1Password Mini, the tab key switches between the item and the username - you can't tab onto the password field.

Why not? Can I enable this some how?

Without being able to tab onto the password field, I find I have to move my hands off my keyboard and use the mouse to copy the password - I'd really love to be able to copy passwords using only the keyboard.

    Hi @coopr!

    After opening mini, tabbing brings you inside the specific item. At that point, you can use the arrow keys to reach the password field, or any other field within that item ;) By allowing tab to bring you back to the item list, you can do all you need without ever leaving the keyboard. This is not a settings that you can change as far as I am aware.

    Ah, ok - so what I need to do is:
    1. Type command \ (1Password Mini opens)
    2. Type tab (username is selected)
    3. Type down arrow (password is selected)
    4. Type return (password is copied)

    OK, I think I can train my fingers to do that - thanks!
