1Password 8 for Mac downgrades & needed improvements
In 1Password 8 for Mac, I can no longer click on a login icon and paste the icon. I have to save a file so I can choose it. That requires many more steps than copy and paste. I did this ALL the time in version 7, so this is a major downgrade. Please put that feature back in!
When creating a memorable password, there's no option to have it add a number. I think in version 7 I'd type in the number manually, but now I can't edit the password until after it's made. So please include the ability to edit the password as it's being made (which we should be able to do), and/or at least add an option to add a number (which many passwords require). This seems like such an simple oversight I'd amazed it has never been fixed.
Not being able to resize the 1Password browser pop-up is annoying. I have a large screen and not being able to make the pop-up bigger so I can see all the info (such as long titles in the left column (which should be resizable) seems like a waste of available screen space.
I'm using Safari as my browser.

We'll keep advocating on your behalf.
I can barely remember people asking for section re-ordering something like 5/6 years ago. Crossing fingers now ;)

Hi folks,
Thanks for all your feedback here.

I've added your voice to an internal issue we have on this.
As mentioned elsewhere, while I can't make any promises, reordering fields and sections is something that's on our radar. This is the first release of 1Password 8 for Mac, but it isn't the final one, so we'll continue to iterate on it as time goes on.

Piggy we learned well with several companies that broke their business app by migrating to electron. downgrading to 7 is NOT a solution, its a temporary fallback and updates must be running for security reasons. overall the team making 1password have to do a proper job and looking at the negative feedback in the community its more than they can chew.
Agreed on all points here.
@sveltemimemansion , this thread has rollback instructions and additional information. I have rolled back 4 Macs (macOS, Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge) and 1P 7 appears to be working fine. I have also turned off "automatically install updates."
I'm also going to downgrade after 1 day. I had to set up a replacement MacBook that my company sent me. A Google search hit 1P version 8 and as the page didn't say anything about it being beta, I installed it and upgraded my personal Macs. Big mistake. I only used it briefly enough to know it felt like a step backward and the ability to Command-nn between vaults seems to have been removed. I toggle between multiple vaults for my job plus a personal vault, so this is a major painpoint for me. I also don't like the way search results are presented. I have multiple login (and other) records with similar names. Like demohub01c and demohub02r and so forth. I could quickly bring up a tight, cozy list of results matching my search and now it feels more cumbersome; bloated.
