How do I disable form autosubmit?

In 1Password 8 when I fill a login in Safari, it automatically submits the login. I would like 1Password to fill out the fields but not hit the submit button. In earlier versions of 1Password, I w...

I have done some more digging and believe the issue is that the 1Password desktop app does not attempt to communicate with the Safari extension if the user has pressed Cmd+\.

Using Chrome

When I initiate autofill by clicking on the 1Password icon in the text box, the following is logged:

==> ./BrowserHelper/1Password_rCURRENT.log <==

  1. The Chrome extension sends a message to the browser helper
  2. The browser helper relays the message to the desktop app
  3. The desktop app identifies the login to use, and sends the credentials to the browser helper
  4. The browser helper relays the message to the Chrome extension
  5. The Chrome extension fills the login form

When I initiate autofill using Cmd+\, the following is logged:

  1. The desktop app identifies the active app as a browser
  2. The desktop app sends a message to the browser helper requesting information on the active page
  3. The browser helper relays the message to the Chrome extension
  4. The Chrome extension provides information on the active page to the browser helper
  5. The browser helper relays the message to the desktop app
  6. The desktop app identifies the login to use, and sends the credentials to the browser helper
  7. The browser helper relays the message to the Chrome extension
  8. The Chrome extension fills the login form

  1. The desktop app does not identify the active app as a browser
  2. Universal Autofill is invoked
  3. Using the accessibility API, the desktop app determines the active site
  4. The desktop app identifies the login to use
  5. Using the accessibility API, the desktop app injects credentials as keystroke events

Conclusion

1Password 8's detection of the active application does not appears to be correctly identifying that Safari is a browser and, as a result, is not even attempting to communicate with the Safari extension.
