@mike3825 The two settings in Auto-lock are independent from each other. If you activate the checkbox, 1Password locks if the computer is being locked ("sleep, screensaver, switching user"). The timer below is independent from this. It just counts from the last user interaction (mouse move, keypress). If it elapsed and no interaction was detected, 1Password locks. You will notice the timeout setting isn't indented deeper than the check box as with other dependent settings, so that's the sign both settings are independent from each other.
1Password will lock if either condition is met, not if both conditions met.
