Feature request - bring back right click menu in the quick access box

swanny246

I've noticed since moving to v8 of 1Password on Windows that you can no longer access the right click options to copy the password, copy the one time code, etc. Is it possible for this feature to be reinstated as it was on v7?

Hi @swanny, thanks for this question. 👋

One way you can currently copy a password quickly from Quick Access is to use the shortcut ctrl + C. Does that meet your use case? If not, I'd be happy to learn what about the right-click option works better for you, and pass that on to our developers. I'll look forward to hearing from you! 😃

+1 on this. Here is my context.
My muscle memory from the previous version is to right-click on a short (5 items or so) of my "favorite" entries, and select Copy password from the dropdown, then paste into the correct app/location (which is not always a place that has the browser extension.)

The reason the keyboard shortcut is not that helpful is that I do the entire procedure only with the mouse:

• click 1password in the taskbar
• right-click the password entry
• click "copy password"
• click the window of the app that needs the password
• right click and paste the password into the field.

To interrupt the flow of this by switching to the keyboard and then back to the mouse slows me down.
It is possible to do this in version 8, but it requires more visual searching. Now you have to left-click the entry, then look to the right in the entry details box for the password field. Once you refocus on that, you have to slide over and click there to copy the password. That is more work than the right-click dropdown, where the needed function is already just below where I right-clicked, and my eyes are already looking there.

It took me a while after installing v8 to realize that you could click the password field to copy the password. If your mouse is over the password field, the word "copy" appears at the far right side. It was only today that I realized I could click anywhere in the password field to copy the password (not just on the word 'copy'), because I generally avoid clicking on something that looks like a text field I don't want to accidentally change, since I want to be careful I don't start editing an important field like the saved password.

I also use other password managers, and they support right-click and copy password, so that transfers nicely "cross-platform" for me.

Hello @gregn, thanks so much for your +1 and providing this valuable use-case feedback. I can certainly understand how switching to the keyboard and back to the mouse can interrupt your workflow and slow you down. I'll pass this along to the developer and let them know your thoughts on this subject. Have a great day!

I agree. The right click is inherent in windows.
