Missing features in 1P8 (that 1P7 had)
I consider myself a power user and so have found 1P8 to remove a number of things that I relied upon to make my experience of 1P efficient.
Here are some things I've noticed with the standalone app:
- Can't update icon with paste. Previously I could copy an image to clipboard, edit an entry, select the icon and paste. Now I need to Choose new icon....
- Can't drag and drop a file to an entry. I now have to select add more -> Attach a File.
- Missing Keyboard Shortcuts for Command 0 - All Vaults, Command 1 - Next Vault etc. I understand that Command 0 now resets zoom which aligns with other macOS apps but another keyboard shortcut would be nice.
- When generating a password, I can't select it and copy it until I press Use. In 1P7 I could copy directly from the generation box. Sometimes I just want to use 1P for generation, not for saving an entry.
- This final one is very strange, I hadn't experienced this until I upgrade to 1P8 but sometimes copying username/password/textfield with keyboard shortcut doesn't work. The system registers the copy (the Edit menu bar item highlights) but when I go to paste else where, it pastes the previous clipboard item. I'm curious to know if this has been reported by anyone else?

I second the frustration with copy/paste - most recently I was trying to copy the title of a field and could not copy NOR paste. That along with re-ordering fields and changing field types are critical features that should have been included in the first 1P8 release. Please bring them back ASAP.
Actually, while on the topic, the whole requirement that fields have types that need to be specified at all is exceedingly frustrating. Most often I just want to enter some data (text), and if later I think it should be a password (or date or whatever), I could simply change the type. Moreover, the need to specify the field type on field creation is exceedingly cumbersome and requires excessive mouse interaction. Consider the usability of features that are not tied to the mouse for those of us who remain hands-on-keyboard as much as possible and for whom the mouse is actually more cumbersome (due to physical/mobility issues).

Copying while editing is one we are looking into for sure. Rearranging rows is not present at this time. This one is something I hope to see come back to 8.

I don't know if we're talking about the same thing, but I'm also running into issues where copy/paste shortcuts tend to just not work while editing items. I noticed this most often when I'm trying to change the order of fields in an item (since there's no longer an option to rearrange rows that I can find). More often than not, it seems like the value doesn't actually copy and it just pastes whatever was in my clipboard before.

Hey @daskdjaskdjsad:
Thanks for your detailed feedback here!
We're continuing to evaluate ways for changing an item's icon, so I'll share your feedback about being able to use the Clipboard to configure an item's icon.
I've added your thoughts about dragging files to attach them.
The shortcuts ⌘+1 to ⌘+9 now control which collection is selected, starting with ⌘+1 as All Accounts.
I'll share your thoughts about wanting a standalone password generator back as well.
As for what you're running into with copying, we're investigating that and hope to know more soon.
Jack
