How do I drag and drop an app on to 1Password to create a new software license entry?

Hey Chris!

How do I drag and drop an app on to 1Password to create a new software license entry?

We don't have a feature that does that in 1Password 8, but I've filed a feature request to that effect. :) Thanks!

After that, the "New Item" button stopped working. I had to restart 1Password in order to re-enable it.

That bit sounds like a bug, but I wasn't able to reproduce it on the latest nightly, so it seems we may've already fixed that issue. If it persists please let me know. :+1:

Try dragging an Application on to the 1Password Application window instead. The UI becomes unclickable!

Thanks Chris. Could you please try the latest nightly build? I tried as you show in your recording and cannot reproduce the issue there.

Ben

Ah, where can I find the nightly builds?

Hey @"Chris Messina":

To switch release channels, open and unlock 1Password then choose 1Password > Preferences, then select Advanced > Release Channel and select "NIGHTLY". After changing to the nightly channel, select About in Preferences, then Check for Updates to install the latest nightly build.

Let us know if that fixes it for you!

Jack

Ah ha! Got it, thanks. Expected to see this option under "About", where "Check for Updates" lives.

@1P_Ben — I can confirm that the nightly build fixes the drag-and-drop-an-app issue! Thanks!

Hey @"Chris Messina":

Glad to hear that worked for you! Don't hesitate to get in touch if you need anything further!

Just wanted to add a quick vote for the "drag to add software license" feature, I used it whenever I acquired a new software license in previous versions to quickly add a new version to 1Password.

Hey @rufo:

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I've added your feedback internally as well.

I would also like to say this is a feature I'm greatly missing with 1Password 8. So many downgrades with the move to 8 - inconsistent alternative browser support on MacOS, losing drag and drop, I'm just glad you added command delete so at least deleting stuff is only two steps rather than the myriad of steps that you added when "archive" became the default behaviour.
