Four requests for an update

Just wanted to bring the following ideas up for enhancement:

  1. In quick access, it would be great if we had the ability to edit entries there, as we did with 1PW mini
  2. Also re: quick access-it would be helpful if there was a way to specify the suggestions that come up by default as soon as quick access is invoked (are these recent items? why not favorites? or even Suggestions?)
  3. This is admittedly minor: many of my software licenses lack app icons (odd, since some of the ones that do are pretty obscure but ones that lack them often are not obscure). Any way to paste one in? Currently there doesn't seem to be any way to do that.
  4. Finally, as with previous versions of 1PW, copying secure notes to a shared vault does not preserve the attached files, and it's really cumbersome to try to link those documents to the same secure note copied to one or two other shared vaults. I thought v8 was going to preserve attached documents when items were copied, but maybe I misread that a month or two ago.

Thanks!

1Password Version: 8.2.2
Extension Version: 2.1.2
OS Version: 12.0 Beta (21A5543b)

    Hello @dtoub, Thank you for trying out the early access version of 1Password 8 and sharing your feedback!

    I am so glad that you like the item editing experience in 1Password 8, we think it's our best item editor yet! I will file an issue with our Quick Access designers to see if an Edit button that opens the item for editing in the main app is something that can be included.

    Quick Access default suggestions are still under active development. I'll bring that feedback back to the team for consideration by our Quick Access user experience experts. We want Quick Access to feel like magic and we appreciate these kinds of suggestions from our power users like you.

    The item editor is gaining custom icon support very soon and that should help you set up your software license icons just the way you wish. We do not yet support dragging an app onto the item editor to set the icon but please let me know if that's something that would be valuable to you.

    Last, could you help me understand the difficulty you’re having with attachments?

    We have several types of links and attachments (some of which are new in 1Password 8 ) so I want to make sure I understand where you’re having trouble.
    1Password 8 supports Document items where the item in 1Password is centered around a single file. Those can be moved from vault to vault (within the same 1Password Membership).
    1Password 8 also supports File Attachments where you can add a file to an existing 1Password item using the + add more button. Those items (and their attached files) can also be moved between vaults (again within the same 1Password Membership).
    Last, 1Password 8 supports Linked Items, which is a reference from one item to another item in the same vault. Since the reference is built to always refer to items in the same vault, this relationship cannot (at this point) work across vaults (or 1Password Memberships). However, we are having internal discussions about how to make this sort of thing work, though I can’t commit to any kind of timeline.
    Which one of these attachment mechanisms were you having trouble with? Let me know so I can dig in a little further with you.

    Thanks for helping us making the app better and please keep the great feedback coming. :)

    That actually is something that would be useful

    It was the last one. These were files that were attached to secure notes in my vault but as you note, they do not transfer across vaults even though the attachment files were also copied to the other vaults.
