I know I've seen this setting before, and I've seen people mention it on this forum, but it's not in the Preferences dialog.

1Password Version: 1Password 7 Version 7.6 (70600005) 1Password Store
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 10.14.6
Sync Type: 1password.com

    I would also expect your knowledge base to have a description of every item in the preferences, but I can't find that either.

    Hi @emclain

    Could you please elaborate on what you're trying to accomplish? I'm not sure I understand what you mean when you say you want to keep 1Password mini open. Thanks!

    Sorry... I mean, keep 1Password running in the background even after closing the main window, so that I can still click on the 1Password menu bar icon to bring up Mini.

    Desired state: no Dock icon, just a menu bar icon.

    ...and, not accidentally closing/locking 1Password when I just meant to minimize it.

    Gotcha! Thanks for clarifying @emclain. That preference is in 1Password > Preferences > Browsers:

    I hope that helps. Should you have any other questions or concerns, please feel free to ask.

    Sure, that helps. Thank you!

    However, it's not clear that setting has anything to do with 1Password Mini. I don't use the browser extensions (I'm using 1Password X in my browsers), so that's why I overlooked that setting.
