Thanks in advance for considering the issue.ġPassword Version: 1Password Version 6.8.8 (688001) Mac App Store I understand that this is likely for security reasons, but is it necessary to prevent these attempts with all 1Password fields (e.g., Notes)? If the answer is Yes, might it be possible to add a text scratchpad (global to 1Password) that is unrestricted? If so, one could open the scratchpad, use KM (or TextExpander) as desired, copy the text, and then paste it into the desired 1Password entry field. After closing the 1Password "edit" (using Save or Cancel), KM operation resumes as expected. When this occurs, the KM text entry is even blocked when switching to a different application (e.g., Text Edit). KM reports that Secure Input is Enabled and the message even suggests that 1Password is likely the culprit. When attempting to enter text into a 1Password field (when editing a 1P item) using Keyboard Maestro, 1Password blocks the text entry. Quite a neat macro in just two actions, but very useful.Note that I would have added to an earlier forum entry, If you don’t fancy creating the macro yourself you can of course Variable to the specified year (4 digits), followed by a hyphen,įollowed by the specified month (2 digits), followed by a hyphen and Selects OK the second action ( Set Variable) sets the DateStamp If the user selects Cancel the macro terminates. The user is presented with an OK and a Cancel button when the window isĭisplayed. |%ICUDateTime%yyyy%|%ICUDateTimeMinus%1%Years%yyyy%|%ICUDateTime%yyyy%|%ICUDateTimePlus%1%Years%yyyy%|%ICUDateTimePlus%2%Years%yyyy%|%ICUDateTimePlus%3%Years%yyyy%|%ICUDateTimePlus%4%Years%yyyy%

My use cases thus far, but it would be straight forward to extend this A six year range has been good enough for Similar construct for outputting one, two, three and four years beyond This is followed by the current year as a four digit year and then a Is then formatted to be a four digit year. Special Keyboard Maestro variable construct that can subtract from theĬurrent date time. The list starts at the year previous to the current year by using a The list is then constructed from six years. The “%ICUDateTime%yyyy%” that begins the list sets the default to be theĬurrent year. Instead everything is calculated from the current The day variable capture therefore loks like this. When the day is substituted in rather than adding a duplicate entry theįirst pipe character tells Keyboard Maestro to simply find it in the (‘|’)) is put at the start of a pipe separated list of all of the days.
