4 years agoDefault "Cmd+\" shortcut has a conflict on macOS Monterey
If you change the 1Password pop-up menu shortcut from "Cmd+\" to anything else, then try to set it back or press the "restore old shortcut" icon, you get an alert that it conflicts with a system shortcut. I checked all of my system shortcuts in my system preferences and nothing comes up.

Thanks @ag_ana - would love to know if you find a fix as it's a shortcut I was using everyday since the early days of 1password!

@ysh4312:
I have heard back from the developers, and I was told that they managed to reproduce the behavior, but that this is unfortunately not fixable. If I hear back with more details I will be happy to post them here :+1:

I cannot find how to edit/remove my post, isn't it possible?

I can test it for you, but I will need more details: which English is default for you? In my macOS preferences, I see Australian, British, British - PC, Canadian, Irish, U.S. and U.S. International - PC. Thank you!

Standard default english.

There actually has to be a 1Password window open (e.g. visible when CMD+TAB'ing) for CMD+\ to work.
It does not work when only the 1Password helper is active (and unlocked) in the Menubar.That's right, by using the shortcut outside of 1Password I wanted to know if something other than 1Password was using it, so thanks for checking :+1:
What keyboard layout are you currently using?

To answer your question @ag_ana, nothing launches, when using CMD+\ 'outside' 1Password.

Does something launch if you use the Cmd+\ shortcut outside of 1Password?
