⚠️ This issue respects the following points: ⚠️

  • This is a feature request for one feature, not a question, discussion or multiple features.
  • This is not a feature request for the browser extension or another client.
  • This feature is not already requested on Github (I've searched it).
  • This feature does not already exist (I checked the wiki).

Current Status

When you hover over a password/secret field in the details view of a password, the masking "dots" of the password disappear and the underlying password/secret value is shown. This functionality is fine, but for those who are paranoid like me, it would be great to be able to click on a password/secret field in the details view of a password so I can copy the value to my clipboard without the underlying password/secret being shown in plain text in my browser. I'm proposing another configuration setting should be added to the User Interface settings that would allow users to turn off the "show password on hover" builtin functionality.

Feature Description

  1. Open Passwords app.
  2. Go to settings.
  3. Under the User Interface column, toggle a checkbox that would configure secrets/passwords in the details view to not be displayed on mouse hover.
  4. Go to the details view of a password and click on a password to copy it to the clipboard. When you hover over the password/secret field, the masking "dots" are still shown and the underlying value is not shown.
  5. Sit back and relax, knowing that nobody can ever see your passwords in plain text when you're copying them to the clipboard in the details view.
  6. Profit.
