iPassword save dialog box pops up in middle of dual-display workspace.

As shown here, when the dialog to save a password pops up, it does so centered in the workspace, which when you have two monitors, happens to be split across the displays. I think you're just calling the wrong call to get the center, I remember Mozilla had a similar bug about 15 years ago.


1Password Version: 6.5.401d

OS Version: Windows 10 10.0.14393

    Hi @greyhodge,

    Thanks for reporting this. We cannot reproduce this with the latest 1Password version yet.

    Are your monitors treated as one monitor and not two extended monitors? If so, that'd explain the issue, 1Password is centering on the active monitor, which is what Windows is giving us.

    If you move the Save Login window to the monitor you want and save it, it'll save the location and appear there next time.

    We are looking into changing the APIs in a future update, there are other related issues with the ones we're using.

    I've moved the save login, it persists in popping up in the center. My desktop is set as two displays, not a virtual single display, or so I think. I'm unaware of setting multiple monitors as one single monitor, my displays are 1920.1080 and 1920x1200 so I'm not even sure that would be an option for me anyway. Is there a way I can help debug this on my end?
