4 years ago1Password 8 search
Hi,
Longtime 1Password user since 2010 but first time posting here :)
I recently upgraded to 1P 8 on both my Windows and Mac and couldn't help but notice the search bar doesn't seem to search the "notes" section for logins now. This has worked fine in 1P7. Has anyone else noticed this? Can this feature be added back please? Thanks!

Searching in 7 was so much better and easier! I switched to a vault on the left side and after this searching was restricted only to this vault. Now, every searching ist always in all vaults. Please make vault-filtering easy like in 7 again.

Hi @netpog, thanks again for the additional comments and feedback here. This has been noted for the Product team. π

Thanks, ag_mike_d, and I did see your other reply. I just want to endorse here the note from viswiz. Progressive search (as you type) is wonderfully intuitive and obvious.
Few of us have large enough databases of 1Password items for that to be a performance problem. (And if it became a problem, well, a little hash tabling and/or indexing goes a long way.)

I would LOVE to be able to control search behavior via SETTINGS:
* Swap Ctrl+Enter versus Enter
* Set the ctrl+alt+f behavior as the default behavior (i.e. in the search box, and via Ctrl+f)
I'm sure the above would cut WAY down on complaints from people like, well, me.And I'll confirm: partial-word search works in the search box, but only for word-initial strings.
All other partial-word searches require ctrl+alt+f.
(This with 1Password 8 Windows 8.8.0 (80800215 on BETA channel) on Win 10 Pro.)PS: I suggest that NONE OF US have learned to instinctively hit Ctrl+Alt+F for a default search, in any app.
Ditto Ctrl+Enter, which is inexplicably required in v. 8 to see search results. (In other words, to get the usual and expected output from a search!)Thanks to the 1Password Team, for hearing us out!

viswiz Thanks for providing that information. Being this has been an issues for that long is ridiculous. My confidence level in 1PW has diminished even further. I now need to comb this support community site to determine if there any other "significant" bugs that I should be concerned with and make a determination if it's time to move on.
