It was not. This would add a little button in the password field of the page, instead of having to click the button in the browser toolbar.
Awesome. It's always been a little hit and miss whether the pop up for passwords would show when you click on a text field, and I resent having to drag the mouse all the way to the toolbar to get at them.
No keyboard shortcut?
I can't remember off the top of my head, but there is an autofill option in the right click menu.
/edit: Ctrl+Shift+L
I use the shortcut all the time
Yes and you can just change it to whatever you like. I have it at ctrl shift A.
Hmmm you've got me wondering now..
Edit: Apparently there are! TIL: https://bitwarden.com/help/keyboard-shortcuts/
Not sure if they'd work on sites that the pop up box doesn't work on, though. There are a handful where I have no choice but to copy and paste.
Looks like the desktop app has a few too. It's not as powerful as KeePass' options, which include hunting down and activating other windows and auto-typing your username and password, along with a bunch of user-specified options like pauses or custom keypresses, but it's something.
(KeePass is also a whole lot clunkier and has no official web extension, so a lot of that is out of necessity.)
Didn’t know about Ctrl shift y thanks for this!
Ah okay! That's neat. Especially for the less technically inclined
