1password 8.8.0 There is a display issue of "*" in secure notes.

I don't see the letters "" in my secure notes, the only way to see it is to Edit secure notes.
My password has letters "" not displayed in secure notes.

1Password Version: 8.8.0

    Hi @boombr, sorry that you've encountered this issue. Let's get it sorted out!

    It sounds like this might be a result of how Secure Notes are formatted. By default, Secure Notes use Markdown formatting, which allows you to use symbols like * and _ to format text (I actually used Markdown just now to demonstrate this 👆).

    As a result, those symbols might be interpreted as a "formatting character" by the app, and not as a part of the text to be presented on-screen.

    Let's do a quick test to determine whether that's responsible for the problem you're seeing:

    1. Open 1Password for Windows and unlock with your usual password.
    2. Select ⋮ > Settings > General
    3. Un-check the "Format secure notes using Markdown" option.

    Does that resolve the issue? I'll look forward to learning what you find!
