Can 1PW just fill highlighted areas of a form or login page?

I used to use RoboForm and a few years ago switched to 1PW. One feature that RoboForm had that I do miss was that if one selected an area of a form or login page, RoboForm would only fill in the fields in that area ignoring the rest of the form/page. I don't think 1PW does this and would suggest that they add this feature.

    Hello, @bobarnett.

    Thank you for writing in. 1Password in the browser cannot autofill a single highlighted field in a web form. Alternatively, you can use the drag-and-drop feature from the 1Password extension pop-over.

    That said, I would happily pass your feedback along to our product team. Could you please elaborate on the use case for this feature? I want to provide our team with as much information as possible.

    Sometimes, when filling in an onscreen form, I want to fill in about half with my work info and the other half with my home info. If I could highlight/select the fields that I want filled in, it would save a lot of time. If I just let 1PW fill in the whole form, I then have to clear and/or correct the fields that are incorrect for the situation.
    ALSO
    When using the Drag-n-Drop feature you mentioned, if I drag a username or password from 1PW to the login form, 1PW inserts it into anything that was automatically filled in (from cookies?) which ends up having a mash-up of what was there and what I want there.

    @bobarnett,

    Thank you for your feedback. While I can't make any promises, I've shared the feedback with our product team. You mentioned:

    Are you referring to a Remember me box from a website? If so, I recommend unchecking that box before signing so the fields remain empty next time.
