1Password is an application that works very well when users can invoke it from anywhere. Quick Access in particular is a feature that is meant to be invoked from anywhere on your desktop. However, as...

Interestingly, 1Password does render pretty well for me in Wayland using v8.7.0 (on Fedora 36 with Sway). I just copied the 1password.desktop
file from /usr/share/applications
to ~/.local/share/applications
, and set the Exec line to Exec=/opt/1Password/1password --enable-features=UseOzonePlatform --ozone-platform=wayland %U
. With this change, both the main 1Password window and the quick access menu both render at high DPI without fuzzy text.
I've not experienced any crashes yet, though I do have a few issues:
1. When opening a new 1Password window on a workspace with a window open, there is a large empty area at the top -- about 200px? This doesn't happen on a blank workspace, where 1Password can fill the screen, just on a workspace where it's split to only part of the screen. Setting it to float also avoids the problem.
2. Quick Access actually renders fine, it's just that the shortcut only works every other time. Ctrl-Shift-Space opens it, Esc closes it, Ctrl-Shift-Space does nothing, but Ctrl-Shift-Space once more opens it. So effectively, the shortcut becomes Ctrl-Shift and then tap space twice. :P
3. Copy/pasting out of the main 1Password app (or quick access) doesn't work at all. At the very least, the values aren't copied to the global clipboard. So if I use the shortcut or click "copy value," nothing gets pasted into other apps like Firefox.
Thankfully copy/pasting in the 1Password browser extension works great :)
