Pin to Screen missing

AnitaGraham

Our developers are investigating an issue where dates aren't being localized to system settings in 1Password 8 and hopefully this will be fixed and improved with a future update. I've added your report to the tracking item for the issue.

Thank you for the feedback, both of your comments have been forwarded to our product team so that they're aware that you'd like to see this feature in the future. 🙂

andrew_l_1P That works, but I think it will be a little quicker having an option to click "pin to screen" from that Quick Access lookup window. I'm actually having to press more keys using shortcuts :(

Please bring back Pin on Screen. I tried 1Password v8 for a few weeks but reverted back to v7 so I could have Pin on Screen again.

Surely, surely the date option would follow the User/OS location settings.
Anything that forces a foreign date format is pretty antediluvian (and confusing)

Hi @tobyw722,

Thanks for sharing your feedback, I've added a proxy vote on your behalf to our internal tracker for pinning items from browser extensions. 👍🏻

In the meantime, if you use 1Password 8 on your device, I recommend trying Quick Access to view passwords:

1. Open Quick Access
2. If the item for your current website isn't already showing, search for it
3. With the correct item highlighted, press ⌘ + O
4. Hold option to reveal your password in the new window
5. When you're done, you can close that window with esc

If step 4 isn't working for you, double check that this setting is checked:

Let me know how that goes or if you have any questions. 🙂

+1 for Pin to screen. For sites where you have to use 4/5/6 character from the password this is a must ! I'm using Firefox on Mac and miss this greatly :(

Hi NormanNorwich,

Anytime! A great place to get started with Quick Access if you'd like: Get to know Quick Access

I'm a dd/mm/yyyy man myself, I've added you to our internal feature request to give users the option to change this. 👍🏻

Thanks for the pointer to Quick Access. Looks promising. (Still don't like the mm/dd/yy format though ;) ).

Hi NormanNorwich and BalNosh27,

To clarify, opening an item in a new window won't open the main 1Password app window. In addition to Dave's instructions for using keyboard shortcuts above, if you prefer to navigate with your mouse you can set the menu bar icon to open Quick Access when clicked:

If you have the website or app open, you'll see your login item in the suggestions and won't have to search for it. From here you can click the 3 dots followed by Open Item In New Window. Here's an example of how this would look, note the main 1Password app window doesn't appear at any point and even when re-focusing on the browser, the new window with my credentials remains visible:

Here's the same process using keyboard shortcuts when on an unrelated website:

I personally prefer this since I'll already be on my keyboard in case I need to search anything, but I encourage you to try them both. We had some feedback earlier in this thread about being able to edit from the new window, I'd be happy to file proxy votes on your behalves if that's also something you're interested in, so let me know. 🙂

Pin to screen was one of the most useful tools and it is huge loss now that it doesn't exist. Please bring it back ASAP
