Choosing correct password impossible due to hidden subdomains

I have been using 1password on my mac for over 1.5 years now. The windows version since a week.

I notice that on both platforms, since an upgrade, picking the right login from the list has become much more difficult. Before, I would do CTRL/cmd + backslash, and get a small list of the login titles, which I can navigate through with the arrow keys, and then hit enter. If there was only one login, the form would even be directly pre-filled.

Now, with the new layover thingie, I first have to wait untill it is loaded, then click on a button, and then pick an option from the list with my mouse. This method takes much more time, and cannot be done without using the mouse.



But the biggest problem is, that the dropdown list with logins does not show the subdomain anymore. I am working a lot with subdomains (shop1.domain.com, shop2.domain.com etc., and webmail.site.nl / www.site.nl / admin.site.nl), which are now all mixed up.

Also, the preselected item which 1password used to have, did check whether there was just one password for the current subdomain, and if so, would directly fill in the form. This has also disappeared.



And a last thingie: where did the extremely usefull Firefox toolbar go? I loved it: it was quick and to the point, and worked like a charm.



Well, a lot of "complaints", sorry about that, but I think a great product got a lot worse lately, and would love to see it changed/reverted <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

    This is not buy experience at all. What we call "single-stroke login" is just as implemented now as it always has been. If I only have one Login for a site, pressing Command-\ fills and submits the form without any popup, menu, or tomfoolery. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />



    Similarly, I can use the arrow keys to select a Login if pressing Command-\ reveals that I have more than one from which to choose. No mousing necessary.

    I am fairly certain that 1Password has only ever listed the Login titles in the extension. You may have some items with domain information in their titles, but this is up to you. you are free to edit the titles at any time and change them to something which suits your needs better. <img src='http://forum.agilebits.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skype_smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':-)' />

    This is not my experience at all. I use the extension to fill in logins using "single-stroke login" on AgileBits subdomains all day long. Do you have an example URL where I can see what you are seeing?

    We have unified the interface across all browsers now.



    Please let me know what version of OS X, web browser, and 1Password extension you are using where you are seeing these problems. I'd love to get everything sorted out for you.
