Macpass http chrome11/7/2023 ![]() You do not need toĪdd the hot key to the system preferences. MacPassĪlways reports feedback when autotype was invoked even if no match wasįound to be able to see if the keystroke worked. Will fail as it's not asking for all databases to be unlocked. If you do not unlock the databaseĬontaining the required entry and another one is unlocked, autotype You invoke autotype and all databases are locked, MacPass will print MacPass of course must run but the database can be locked. Sometimes enabling andĭisabling global autotype fixes that. Where the hotkey is not triggered correctly. On 10/11/16 07:39, Michael Starke I have encountered some cases With the 'which database has the password', how about Macpass asks which Wouldn't it be better to match on URL first since it is more likely toīe more accurate as Titles can be fairly 'loose' and ill-defined? Other than this one feature, macpass has been great so far! It's this one last global auto-type with "separate" control over window title from entry title that is really the only missing piece for me. Unfortunately for me, I have hundreds of entries and using 'title' to represent the window title will make it difficult to identify my own database entries, because I have no control over the window title some website chooses to use. In keepass, I used the "Auto-Type-Window" command for each entry to flag the actual window title. It would almost work here in 0.5.1, except the vast majority of my entries the 'title' field is for my own personal use and identification of that entry, rather than the window title of the page I want to log into. In my keepass use case, I use global auto-type heavily. Is the known not functioning part as of 0.5.1 (current latest release) the window associations, window title, and window sequence fields? I am able to use the 'title' field and 'autotype sequence' field and it works with global hot key. After reading this thread and some change logs, it looks like global auto-type is partially functional. Just verifying I'm not missing a working feature somehow. Restarting the program made it respond again. The program was locked but didn't gain focus. ![]() In other news, I did have an instance today where MacPass stopped responding to the autotype. I just find the record in my password database and one keystroke has me logged in. I like my workflow better because it always works. The website then changes, autotype doesn't work, uggh. But I find this method very cumbersome because it requires carefully trying to make a record match a website. Also consistent with KeePass.Īlso, I was able to make autotype work on a website where the titles matched, so that's good. I guess this isn't suppose to work? It would be pretty nice if it did. ![]() I was trying to do the same thing in MacPass. KeePass switches back to the browser (as if I'd hit control-tab), types the username, tab, the password, and hits enter.Here's what I do in Keepass on Windows (and what I was trying in MacPass): I'm familiar with how KeePass on Windows works, but I may not be using it to it's full capability. 0.4.x did wrongfully store a bad default auto type sequence that results in valid bracket counts.What you could check out to clarify if auto type is working: There is however now visual guide if auto type is initiated and has not found any matches. But even in those cases the unique configuration of each browser powered by the same engine can differ quite significantly, e.g., built-in content blockers and filters, which very often allows one web browser to work for me while another one simply won’t.You're correct in your understanding of Autotype. On iOS and iPadOS it’s not (yet) as easy to achieve diversity because of the underlying browser engine commonality. The less commonality between the redundant implementations the better. This is one reason why I always have more than one web browser installed on every internet connected device I own. The other thing to think about is that, in the case of software, higher availability is usually aided by having diversity of implementation between redundant functionality. If this product category follows what we’ve seen with other product categories like office productivity apps, ebook readers, PDF viewers and annotation tools, etc., the best third party apps like 1Password will survive but fewer new startups will jump into the competitive fray for the product category that Apple decides to bundle into the OS. Third parties are going to have an even harder time it's hard to win against "comes with the platform" plus "no added cost." More and more competition for password managers.
