1Password has issued 1Password 8.10.54 with improvements and bug fixes. The password manager now automatically fills your email address in the username field and generates a password when creating a new Login item, remembers tag selection when reopening the app, improves the LastPass importer so it can recover from failed imports and reuse already imported folders, displays a notification when your items are about to expire, fixes an issue where language settings wouldn’t save during your first sign-in, and resolves an issue where plain text notes wouldn’t show line breaks. ($35.88 annual subscription from 1Password—TidBITS members setting up new accounts receive 6 months free, free update, 4.8 MB installer download, release notes, macOS 10.15+)
While they’ve fixed the line breaks issue they previously broke, they still haven’t yet fixed being able to copy-paste the text in these notes.
Also waiting for markdown settings in the apps to have the same setting in the various browser extensions – the latter always force MD on, even when it has been disabled in the app, and there is no setting in the extensions to disable MD. Highly annoying for years now!
Is Markdown on, as only those with it off have the problem (and in Secure Notes too):
There is still an outstanding issue where plain text notes can’t be selected when markdown is turned off and our team is testing a fix for that issue in the nightly version of 1Password and plans to release it to the beta and stable version as soon as possible.
I have Markdown turned off in 1Password > Settings > General > Format secure notes using Markdown.
By the way, I don’t have the problem in either the notes field in items (which I thought you were referring to in your original post) or Secure Notes.
Not that the problem shouldn’t get fixed for previous systems, but as I mentioned, I am using Sequoia 15.1.1, so that might explain the difference in my experience.
Just upgraded from 1PW7 to 1PW8. So far things seem to be have gone smoothly, but annoyed by the lack of UK English support as System Language. Resulted in the app using Japanese in MacOS on an English system, as it was the second in my list of system languages. Why can’t apps use the right language, even if it is a regional variation?
You can add US English as another system language.
Since you clearly would prefer apps that don’t support UK-English to present US-English before trying Japanese, you should tell macOS about that.
Unfortunately, macOS doesn’t seem to support a non-regional language choice. At some point in the past (but not currently), I remember Firefox allowing me to configure my primary language as “en-US”, followed by “en”, followed by other foreign languages I understand but don’t prefer. So if US-English isn’t available, it would fall back to any other English and only then try other languages.
You should have UK English and US English as 1 and 2 on your Preferred Languages list in System Settings > General > Language & Region. You can remove Japanese, as I don’t think having it on this list does anything in practice.
The list is a list of your preferences. Every app that is localized for multiple regions has a language/region directory in its application package. This list is used to select the one that has the appropriately-localized UI elements for the app.
Having Japanese third after UK-English and US-English will mean that if you have an app with a Japanese UI and no English UI (probably something designed exclusively for an Asian audience), then having that on your list will cause it to choose Japanese.
Which is actually significant because an Asian-targeted app may have localizations for Japanese, Chinese and Korean. If you understand only one of the three, then you will want your Mac to prefer it over the application’s default, which might be different.
