Menu bar icon on inactive monitors

philippwaller

In a dual monitor setup, OS X El Capitan greys out the menu bar on the inactive monitor by default. All icons are fade out as well excepted the 1password icon (see screenshot). Not sure if its bug or a feature :).

Hi @philippwaller,

Thank you for taking the time to ask us about that! To answer your question, it's not a feature - it's more or less a bug that our developers are aware of, and hope to fix at some point.

In case you're curious, this happens because we're doing custom drawing of the mini icon in the Mac menubar instead of letting the OS do it for us. The reason we're doing custom drawing is so that after you click on the mini icon, it stays highlighted while the mini window is open & attached to the menubar. But our developers are looking into ways to do this all differently in the future.

Thanks again for writing in about this. If you need anything else, please don't hesitate to let us know - we're here for you! :)
