1Password Mini Not Copying Shown Password

For a while I thought I was loosing my mind, but I just caught 1Password Mini not copying the generated password it shows.

For example, I just clicked on the 1Password Mini icon (Mac, running Monterey 12.0.1 and 1Password 7.9.1) and then the "Generate Password" button. I use "Memorable Passwords" with periods separating the words. The Password Generator offers a password such as cadenza.PARALLAX.primer, but when I click the "Copy and Save" button and then go paste the password elsewhere, it pastes something completely different: key.neckband.ARID. This is reproducible.

I just had my wife try and the first time she tried, 1Password Mini displayed and pasted the same thing. Second/third attempts did not display and paste the same password as shown in 1Password Mini.

The good news is the saved passwords in the 1Password app do reflect what was actually copied/saved, vs
what was displayed at the time.

I'm including screenshots...

Thanks for having a look at this.

    @Kirkvan

    Looks like this one still needs a little love. I was able to reproduce the issue on 7.9.3 beta 0

    Hello,

    Here in Mid-January, I'm still seeing this bug. I'm running 1Password 7.9.2 (70902005), so the 1Password app has been updated once since my original, post back in December. Might there be any news? When I enable "beta versions", I see a 7.9.3 beta available, but it only lists one fix: "Beta build to restore SideKick and Arc browsers support." Is anyone able to confirm if the latest beta fixes the 'not copying shown password' bug?

    Many thanks,

    Thanks 1P_Dave - it's always nice to get confirmation of a bug like this (oops, did I say "bug"?) and I'm glad to know it's on the list of stuff to get fixed.

    Be well,
