Excess White Space

Though posting here in the macOS section, I find this to be an issue, regardless of operating system. I've always liked "most" of v8 and I just accept what little I don't like because of using 1Password since the very beginning and not wanting to change. But the excess white space in the v8 UI, with no user-selectable way to tighten it up, is nearly intolerable (to me). If this is just another limitation of Electron, someone please let me know and I'll stop hoping for a fix and continue trying to acclimate to it šŸ™‚. I'm not advocating a move back to v7 at all, but I really do miss that gorgeous UI. v8 hits all the same UX things...but does it really need so much useless white space?

1Password Version: 8.9.8
Extension Version: 2.4.1
OS Version: 13.0.1
Browser:_ Safari

    Thanks GreyM1P ā€“ Yes, I've been using that since the beta. Maybe it's just me, but it still seems like a lot of wasted white space in the UI. I'll eventually get used to it.

    Hi LarryMcJ

    Have you tried the Compact view in 1Password? Here's what to do:

    Mac: Open and unlock 1Password, then click the 1Password menu (next to the ļ£æ Apple menu) > Preferences...
    Windows: Open and unlock 1Password, then click the ā‹® menu towards the top-left corner > Settings...

    On the Appearance tab, choose the Compact view, like this:

    Give that a try and see how that looks for you. :)

    ā€” Grey

    One correction: this issue is most noticeable in macOS and Windows. Please disregard my reference to v8 in any other OS.
