1Password not searching all contents of password entry

Hello,
I created a password entry with a password in the password field. I also included a specific phrase in the notes section of that entry; however, I don't receive any results when I search for the phrase or any of the associated words included in the notes section.

I saw some previous threads about 1Password being unable to search notes, but thought that might be for entries that are specifically categorized as a 'notes' type of entry. Is that not the case? Is there a way to search the notes section of a password entry?
Thanks.

    Hi both,

    If you search for something in the Search box at the top of the window, then choose "Show all matching items", you'll see things returned from all fields, like this:

    (You can press ⌘↩ (Command–Return) on a Mac, or Ctrl + Enter on Windows or Linux, to quickly choose "Show all matching items".)

    Give that a try and let me know how you get on. I'll be here if you need further help. :)

    I have this same issue. This is especially important for family accounts. I might want to name an entry in a specific way for sorting but add comments in notes it make searching easier for other family members.

    LastPass does this. When can we expect this feature?
