Pls change "Show all matching items" search default to list (with cmd-return to go to top result)

I would like to request the user preference option to toggle the search behavior in the desktop application. At present with the 1P8 when searching key words, you get a dynamic list that's generated, but the return key will automatically go to the top result's entry. In order to show the list of matching items, you have to press command-return.

This is counter-intuitive and contrary, I suspect, to most UI standards.In the least, a user option to toggle the behavior would be much welcomed, such that simply hitting return shows all the matches, while cmd-return goes to the to result.

    @nbfa, carpii, @rosssimpson, G3TG0T

    1Password recently introduced a change in how search works and pressing enter now opens "Show all matching results". You can then look through the total list of results for a search term.

    Please make sure that you're running 8.10.24: How to keep 1Password up to date

    You might need to completely close and then reopen 1Password before seeing the change. Let me know if this new behaviour helps. 🙂

    Any movement on this? Still really annoying to not have the option to search all by default.

    Hi folks! Thank you for this request. We have an open internal issue about this (and the search feature is a focus of ongoing work here as well), so I have added your comments and votes for proposed solutions to this. 👍

    We are indeed listening. Thank you for letting us know where you find room for improvement - and we'll do our best to exceed your expectations!

    +100 to this; please either revert to the filtering search behavior that v7 had, or provide a configuration mechanism that allows one to use the previous functionality.

    I'm loving a lot of the features in v8, but this change to search behavior is not intuitive at all (in fact, I didn't know about the cmd-enter behavior until I came to the beta forums).

    There are a bunch of other threads that mention this topic. Please take it on board! :)
