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.

@danrodney I too am finding the limitations far outweigh any of the 'new' features. Reordering fields and sections within an Item, and changing the field-type on-the-fly are absolutely fundermental. Have the developers really not tried updating a previously created Item by adding a new field or changing its type, and noticed that the layout and order cannot be retained? This is not progress.
I agree that the lack of copy-and-paste for images is also needlessly painful, and many users will not want to mess around in an external app to prep images just to overcome the new found limitations. It would also seem impossible to change the image associated with a Collection — it defaults to the same image used by the first Vault it contains ...nice and confusing in the Quick Search bar where one doesn't know whether the Vault is selected or the Collection.
@danrodney Excellent points. The inability to resize the popup is really annoying.
I am really surprised that so much of the functionality from V7 is missing from V8.
Is this a shortcoming of the development in Electron?Sneak preview: v8 on iOS can’t move fields/sections either.
There’s a post from Dave on this forum where he admits he was wrong in trying to get rid of this and they will implement it in the future.
