Touch ID popup window

Problem: The Touch ID popup window appears BEHIND (hidden) other popup windows on macOS, if present. For example, I have a company laptop which asks my admin password using a popup window every time when I want to update software. When that happens, I open 1Password (to copy my admin password) and the Touch ID popup window appears behind the existing popup window.

Solution: Open the Touch ID popup window on TOP of all windows, including other popup windows.

1Password Version: 7.9.1
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 10.15.7

    Hi @mplaine

    I completely understand the desire here. I'm afraid that window is generated by the system though and 1Password does not have control over its positioning or placement on the screen. We'll continue to look for ways to improve this experience as they're made available. There is some new Touch ID stuff in macOS Monterey that we can investigate, though I'm not sure at this stage if it'll improve this specifically.

    You're welcome! I'm sorry to not have a better answer for the immediate future, but we'll keep it on the radar. :)
