Password generator in 1Password 8 Quick Access

Hello!

I have just updated to 1Password 8 and I am very happy about it :)
One small annoyance I found is the missing password generator -- previously I could click on the menubar icon and there will be a big button to generate a new password, but now it's gone. Is there a plan to bring it back?

We have this button in the Chrome extension...

But where is it in the macOS app?

1Password Version: 8.7
Extension Version: -
OS Version: macOS 11.6.5

    Hey @xupaddy:

    Glad to hear you're liking 1Password 8 so far! 😁 To generate a password in 1Password 8 for Mac, the New Item button would be your best bet. With that said, I can definitely understand how it would be useful to generate passwords right from Quick Access, so I've shared your thoughts on our internal tracking issue for it.
