How can I make it stop??
1Password 7 brought an annoying new "feature" -- when I'm on a web page with information to fill out, it keeps popping up this little box trying to fill in suggestions, which as often as not, is wron...

I tried restarting the 1Password Mini and at least so far it seems that has helped somewhat with the issue with the unresponsive "Click to activate 1Password." There are times that things get confused, where I click the 1Password icon in the upper right of the browser, and another window will pop up to "Open 1Password" when that's what I'm trying to do, but that new window gets in the way.
As for the second issue, the key factor here is that it ONLY works in Safari. I use several browsers, including Safari, each for different purposes (all related to various functions of my job). I did turn it off in Safari and am so happy to be rid of that nuisance. However, the browser where I most need for this feature to be turned off is Firefox, since I do a lot of testing in Firefox with test users and accounts, and every time, 1Password keeps getting in my way trying to suggest MY information and it's not what I want. Or it wants me to create new 1Password items to store, but I don't want to -- I'm just testing. How soon will it be before we can see the ability to turn off the "Automatically show inline menu when selecting a field" in other browsers, also?
Today another new annoyance began to appear, also in Firefox. When I'm at a website and click the 1Password icon in the upper right, it used to be ready for me to hit "Autofill." Now instead, it wants to put in a NEW password. I have to click the current website in the list and then choose "Autofill" to have it fill the existing password. So what used to be one step is now two steps. Plus, with the habit of just clicking one step to Autofill, I'm afraid I'm going to forget and create a new password unintentionally.
I've had 1Password since 1Password 2 and have been enthusiastic about it, but it seems in recent months it's losing its user friendliness, mostly due to these aspects of 1Password getting in the way instead of being helpful.
