new Browser + App unlock = big fail

Hey mtissington, the filling shortcut "Ctrl + \" comes from the 1Password app and not the extension. If you invoke that shortcut, and the app is locked, then you would be prompted to unlock the app in order to fill with it.

1Password 8 and the new extension were built as standalone tools. That means they can operate independently. To connect the two, we added a browser integration feature. 'Keep 1Password in the menubar' is part of that browser integration feature. 'Keep 1Password in the menubar' allows the app to be unlocked and running in the background if you close the app window. If 'Keep 1Password in the menubar' is unticked, then closing the app window would lock it back up. Essentially, closing the app window would mean that you are quitting the app.

Because the app and extension are linked, then closing the app window would also lock up the extension. So it's best to leave 'Keep 1Password in the menubar' ticked. This ensures that you just have to unlock the app/extension once in order to have access to both tools.

I hope that explains what's going on. If you have any further questions about it, please let us know.
