Cannot switch window anymore
Hi, I use 1Password on a french mac and even if I did remove the Quick Access shortcut, it still shows up whenever I use the official switch window shortcut (cmd+`)
On a previous macbook pro M1, I did set my Quick Access shortcut to a one I don't use, and the issue was gone, but on this macbook air M2, 1Password does not care and still try to open a Quick Access panel.
Reverted windows switch (cmd+shift+`) still works, but the forward one does not.
I cannot use my keyboard to switch my iterm windows, my vscode projects, or my finder windows.
Please, help
1Password Version: 8.10.9
Extension Version: 2.13.0
OS Version: macOS 13.5
Browser: Firefox

Hello,
Three years later, this issue still hasn't been resolved.
The keyboard shortcut seems to be hard-coded, and even if you define another shortcut for the Quick Access Shortcut, the cmd + ` remains bound.
Could you unlock it and allow us to use this shortcut system-wide (since it is the macOS default shortcut for switching windows on an azerty keyboard)?
Thank you. - 1P_Dave

Thank you for following up, I don't have any updates to share. The best option for the moment is to workaround the issue by changing the "Move focus to next window" shortcut to a different one.
I'm sorry that I don't have a better answer to give.

Hello, me again.
Do you switch between multiple Finder windows? Multiple web browser windows? Code editor maybe ?
I'd like that too. But I can't do it from my keyboard anymore. And it's been a long time now… - 1P_Dave

Thanks for the ping. I see that the issue is still open in our developer's backlog but I don't have an ETA to provide. Thank you again for your patience.

When, and if, a fix is released you'll see it noted in our release notes: 1Password Releases
I'm sorry again for the inconvenience.

Hi 1P_Dave,
Thanks for your support, I hope it will be fixed soon.
Thanks again for the workaround, but I won't change a twenty years old system wide global shortcut known and use by every french mac user a a fix for one single app.
I will instead disable the 1password Quick Acess until a fix is released.Thanks

Hello loranger! 👋
I'm sorry that you're running into an issue when using keyboard shortcuts. Our developers are aware of this behaviour and I've added your report to the internal work item open for the issue. Hopefully this can be improved with a future update.
In the meantime, as a workaround, you can change the "Move focus to next window" shortcut to a different one by double-clicking where it says ⌘` next to "Move focus to new window" in the System Settings window that you posted.
