Title:
1Password Chrome Extension (v8.11.14.24) Causes Unwanted Vertical Scrollbar by Injecting 1p-live-region Element

Hello 1Password Team,

I’m encountering a layout issue triggered by the 1Password Chrome extension, which I believe was introduced in a recent update (within the last week or two). Below are the details:

Environment:

  • Device: MacBook Pro 15-inch, 2018 (macOS 15.6.1)
  • Browser: Chrome 141
  • 1Password Extension Version: 8.11.14.24

 

Issue Description:
The page structure includes a root div inside the body with styles set to width: 100vw and height: 100vh, while the html element has width: 100% and height: 100%. Under normal conditions, the page renders correctly without any scrollbars.

However, when an input field on the page is focused, the 1Password extension injects a new element into the body with the ID 1p-live-region. This element has a fixed height of 1px, which introduces an unwanted vertical scrollbar and breaks the intended layout.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Load a page with a root div set to 100vw/100vh and html set to 100% height/width.
  2. Observe that the page displays correctly without scrollbars.
  3. Focus on any input field to trigger the 1Password extension.
  4. The 1p-live-region element is added, causing a vertical scrollbar to appear.

 

Expected Behavior:
The injected 1p-live-region element should not disrupt the page layout or cause scrollbars to appear.

This issue seems to be a recent regression. I’d appreciate it if the team could investigate and resolve it. Thank you for your attention and hard work!

Let me know if you need additional details or clarifications.

Hey Dave, are you guys still actively trying to fix this issue? It's been a bug for a while and it creates a very annoying UX quirk.

Hi @lewisia32,

Could you share what version of 1Password in the browser you have installed currently? If possible, could you also share the URL where you're experiencing it?
