the browser extension autofill has a bug [1], doesn't work for all logins [2], and isn't the best option for supplying credentials to apps outside of a browser.

thus i prefer to use the os x app for certain scenarios because it requires fewer steps than copying/pasting credentials from the browser extension.

however, there doesn't appear to be an option to copy an item's username to the clipboard in os x. (have it missed it?)

if this isn't a feature, is it on the roadmap?

an aside: i previously used keepassx (1 and 2 alpha), but purchased a license for 1password specifically for the browser autofill feature. however, i'm starting to miss the ability to copy both username and password credentials.

[1] see forum discussion

[2] i could update this post with an example if necessary

    superQ - If I hover my mouse cursor over the username in a login record, a Copy button appears. Click that and the user name goes to the clipboard. This same action works for the password too. Is that what you're seeking?

    hawkmoth - no, as the title of the post indicates, i'm requesting a keyboard shortcut.

    further, the bug with the chrome extension makes copying/pasting even more manual than copying/pasting from the os x app.

    Hey @superQ,

    As mentioned in your other thread, I've passed this along to the devs. I myself am a huge fan of keyboard shortcuts. There are a few of them that I think are in the app because of my incessant pestering. LOL

    hey @khad - as someone who's remapped CAPS to ctrl, ctrl+h to backspace (etc.), this is what i like to see! :+1:

    Oh, man. I don't want to get into a "Keyboard Shortcut Competition" with you. I am afraid I might lose. Thankfully we are on the same side in this regard. :D
