Secure Note missing text unless edited

I am encountering the issue specifically when there is an asterisk in my note (*).

I have a note that has 4 asterisks in it. I was only able to identify the discrepancy by pasting the output of copying the note without editing and also pasting the note in edit mode.

I spent hours trying to find the issue. Until I figured it out.

I have all sorts of characters in the secure note and the issue is only present with asterisk.

Not sure how this is marked as solution.

For now I'm going to refrain from using Secure Note altogether.

Wondering why 1Password doesn't disable the Secure Note feature or post a notice about the issue until this is truly resolved.

I would think that being able to copy and paste should be a basic functionality of a password manager.

What kind of joke is this to have so many different types of item types that can be saved if there are flaws in some of the methods namely "Secure Note"?

I guess its so secure that even an authorized user cant access its contents properly. 

I encountered this problem today (Windows version 8.10.78) and would count it as a significant defect since it causes information to be silently truncated when viewing in Windows. I thought the information was lost until I hit the edit button and it appeared. This was marked as "Solved" on the basis that the development team were aware of the issue and actively working on it, but that was 5 months ago. Is there an ETA for a fix? Thx

I'm not sure this is a solution for everybody but I've found this truncating issue can be resolved by eliminating the spaces at the point in the note where it occurs. 

I deleted spaces to the left of sentences so the sentence itself  lines up with the left margin. This enabled the entire secure note to be viewed WITHOUT having to view the note in edit form.

I hope this helps!

As of today, Apr 9, 2025, this is a known issue and the development team is working on it. 

Here is the response I got after opening a new ticket. "Based on the details that you've shared, it seems like you're experiencing a known issue our Development team are actively working on where Secure Note contents can end up truncated if a line starts with four or more spaces or an indent after a paragraph break or at the beginning of a note."

It seems to me that 1Password should have have shared this info on this thread.

I am aware of these 2 ticket numbers:

HJZ-53348-539 and WKW-71751-512

Has this been fixed? I bumped into this today and found the "missing" data with the iphone app

I further filtered the confidential information from the secure note, and even the cleansed text is having issues.

I have this text in a secure note, and it also exhibits the issue that the text below a certain point in the note is hidden.

Thank you for the additional information. I'm glad that you were able to workaround the issue by retyping your note.

I'll keep an eye out for further reports of this behaviour. If you're able to tell me more about the specific character that was causing the issue, or how to reproduce the issue, then let me know.
