Font change possible?

<div class="IPBDescription">How to change to a more distinctive font?</div>Apologies for this simple query...but I've not found the answer after reviewing the forum and trolling through preferences...

With some frequency I need to retrieve a password from 1Password on my iPhone and actually type it in on a PC (this of course is a PC that doesn't have 1Password on it, and that I cannot load 1Password on). Twice recently I have not been able to distinguish the letter "oh" vs number "zero", or letter "ell" and number "one". Something very basic (e.g. courier font) should accomplish this but I've not figured out how to change the password display font?

I have this same issue in 1Password 3 (SL) on my MacBook Pro...the font is not easily distinguishable.

Any hints or options? (those that don't make me feel foolish are more appreciated)

Regards,

Chip

  • I would also appreciate this feature terrifically. I need to enter passwords on work computers, and occasionally on my blackberry etc, and distinguishing between 1lIO0 can make me pretty crazy when using a long, generated, strong password.
  • Hi rickbunk,



    This is definitely something we're looking to improve in a future update to 1Password, we're working to find the right font to use for the username and password fields, there are some limitations on the fonts we can use though.



    Thanks for your feedback,
