Question

Keyboard Shortcuts For Safari Extension?

The keyboard shortcuts for the Safari browser extension still use the old 1Password X ones--e.g., "Cmd + Shift + X" to show 1Password in Safari, and "Cmd + Shift + L" to lock 1Password. Can we customize these just like in the other browsers? Or at least mirror the custom shortcuts we have in the desktop app?

Also, the keyboard shortcut I set up for locking the 1P 8 Early Access app doesn't work anymore. I tried changing it, etc. When I'm on the Mac desktop, for example, the system reads my keyboard shortcut just as if I had pressed any letter. (For example, if you're on the Mac desktop screen and press a letter on your keyboard, it will select the first file/folder on the desktop that corresponds to the letter. In other words, there's some kind of bug that's causing the Mac to not send the command to lock the 1Password app. It over-rides it?)


1Password Version: Early Access 8.5
Extension Version: latest for Safari; 2.x.x
OS Version: macOS 12.1.x

Hi @ungborib:

Thanks for your feedback on this. I've shared your thoughts about ⌘+Shift+X on an internal issue we have tracking this.

I would really like to be able to customize this shortcut as "Cmd + Shift + X" is a very important shortcut for a tool used internally at Apple and having 1Password take over this shortcut seriously hinders my productivity

To add a use case here, Google Docs strikethrough shortcut is cmd+shift+X so I can never use that with the Safari 1P extension enabled.

Hey @dlemos / @bradical:

Thanks for sharing your feedback. I've added you both to the internal issue I mentioned above.

The keyboard shortcut Shift-Command-X to open 1Password is the same as strikethrough on the Mac! I need the strikethrough option more than I need the open 1Password. Help!

My apologies if I am not understanding, but as far as I know, Shift-Command-X opens the 1Password browser extension in Safari or Chrome – not the 1Password desktop application – but first you have to be in one of those browsers (and have a window open).

Also, Shift-Command-X is the strikethrough shortcut in MS Word, but you first have to be in Word, so there shouldn't be any interference with what you do in a browser.

EDIT: Somehow I missed the fact that you are using 1Password 7. With that version, the shortcut to open the browser extension (Mini) is Command-\, so using Shift-Command-X in MS Word or anywhere else should not be a factor at all.

What exactly are you doing when you run into a problem with it?

I have the same issue with @bradical . Our team use Google doc a lot and we want to use the default shortcut ( "cmd+shift+X") for "strikethrough".

1Password used to have a configuration for shortcut setting, and I can no longer find it after I upgrade to 1Password 8 :(

Hey @Davidfh:

You can configure the keyboard shortcut used for 1Password in Chrome by navigating to this URL in Chrome: chrome://extensions/shortcuts

Let me know how you get on with that!

Thanks! Worked perfectly.

+1-ing this issue. I also work in Google Docs all day and cmd+shift+x is a shortcut I need to use so it can't be gobbled up by the 1password safari extension with no way to change it.
