Hi,

one feature out of a ton of features missing in 1PW8 is that the ALT-key on macOS isn't working as in 1PW7 and before.
If I press ALT in 1PW7 the protected fields (Passwords, IDs,) are revealed as long as I press the key.

1Password Version: 8.10.3
Extension Version: Not Provided
OS Version: macOS 13.2.1
Browser:_ Not Provided

Please enable the setting within 1Password. 1Password > Preferences (Settings) > Security -- Concealed Fields -- Hold Option to toggle revealed fields

Thank you. Thats what I am missing. I think I have disabled both settings for concealed fields.
Maybe the german translation has confused me a little bit.

Sounds like things are working better. If you have other question feel free to ask. For clarification this may help.
