3 years agoCan’t sort fields anymore
While in 1Password 7 we talked about the possibility to sort the sections of an item (see https://1password.community/discussion/114351/is-it-possible-to-change-the-order-of-the-sections) I realized ...

3 years agoHi @mischnu and @electricarts, thanks for this question. I'm happy to help!
Our founder dteare was actually just discussing this re-ordering fields question over in the Desktop Betas forum. Here's the quote in its entirety:
the latest release does not have support for reordering fields. This is something we're actively exploring and I expect will be added in the not-to-distant future. While a lot of work remains, I wanted to share that the design team has designed how this feature will look and feel and the dev team has gotten things far enough along that I was able to see a video of it in action. Again, I need to stress a lot of work remains and this will not be included in the immediate future, but I wanted to share that it has bubbled up on our priority list.
As for "why", reordering of fields was something we deliberately left out of 1Password 8 during the design process as we were hoping to simplify things. I was hopeful that we could win with a "less is more" approach but I found myself missing this feature as much as you are. I'm happy that we tried and I'm happy that we changed our minds. Live and learn. 🙏
I hope this provides some insight on where we're coming from.
We also really appreciate you letting us know that this is a feature you found useful. We take the feedback seriously, and I have added votes for a re-order fields feature on (both) your behalf.

We'll keep the updates coming and hope that improvements to come will delight you. 😃
