Cannot authorize SSH key by Master Password if Touch ID active
When Touch ID is active, the prompt for authorising a SSH key does not also provide the option to enter the master password. This prevents me authorising SSH key prompts if I am on a remote screen share to that computer.
The workaround is obviously to turn off Touch ID but it would be best if the authorisation for SSH worked just like the main 1Password authorisation works, with both options being possible.
If there is another way around this I would be grateful to know.
Thanks.

Ramst3rearth-soltrippymacarons There's no visual clue in the GUI itself, but you can switch between Touch ID / account password in the prompt window by pressing the return key.

Thank you for this reply!
Can you talk to someone to get some verbiage around that added to the UI?

+1 to this, constant headache to turn TouchID support on & off as a workaround.

+1 on this. The workaround is so annoying. On a day and age that so many people work remotely, I would imagine this would be a pretty big feature. If for security, at least make it an option in settings?
