Adrian Smith's Blog: UPM 1.4 Released

  • Jelle De Pot · 3 years ago
    Hello,

    I like UPM and I use it frequently...

    I had some idea to add maybe... If would be nice for me to have an option to actually mask my passwords instead of showing it. So that I can still copy paste the passwords, this for example while someone sits next to me and he should not see my passwords...

    Keep it up

    Hi Jelle,

    Glad you like UPM.

    While passwords do appear in clear text they only do so if you open the account. If you want a particular username and/or password then all you have to do is select the desired account and the hit the "Copy Username" or "Copy Password" buttons on the tool bar (there are menu items and keyboard shortcuts as well). This means neither you (nor your friend sitting beside you) ever have to see the password.

    Hello Adrian,

    Thanks for your reply! Yes, i know that function. And it works fine but sometimes I have notes stored on how to connect to a certain service etc and then I have to open the account details... which show directly the password :-).

    So for me personally a little possible option somewhere to mask all passwords when upm is loaded would add an extra plus :-)

    Greetings,
    Jelle

    That's a good point. I'll try and include something in the next release.

    Hi Jelle,

    Happy new year
