Curious about how creating/changing a password works in 1password (previously) X
Hi,
I recently had to change my PayPal password. Usually I go to the corresponding entry in my vault, edit it, and use the dental wheel next to the password field to generate a new one that I then copy/past. This time, I tried to go faster and use the infield suggestion to generate a new password. I was thinking that the extension would offer me to fill in the previously generated password when I have to repeat it in the second field to confirm. Unfortunately, the extension suggested me a new (other) generated password in the "repeat" field instead... Maybe I'm missing something, but I find this very confusing and counterproductive.
Any advice from the team about what I'm perhaps doing wrong ?
For a long time I used the classical extension, so probably that I missed something with this new version...
Thanks

Hi tetardbleu!
If the extension filled two different passwords in the password field and in the repeat password field, that would definitely be a bug.
I was thinking that the extension would offer me to fill in the previously generated password when I have to repeat it in the second field to confirm.
For confirmation: did you have to click on the password suggestion once or twice? In other words, did 1Password fill both password fields for you at the same time, or did it just offer you two different suggestions?
