Title: Toolbar Button
Post by: rbrt_ryn on January 30, 2006, 08:06:00 PM

I would like a toolbar button for copying the current password to the clipboard. The button should work like the one on the options dialog, except that if no master password has been entered it would ask for one.

Why?

Well for one thing it would make pages opened in IETab a lot easier to deal with. Right now I have to navigate down to my custom account before I can copy the password. Having a button would save a lot of messin' around.

How about if Eric simply adds a secondary option to the 'Action to take when Coolkey is Activated'...

So, there would be a checkbox that would copy the password to the clipboard in addition to whatever else was specified (even if 'Do Nothing' was specified)..

Eric - would that be easier than another button?

That's a little easier, but I don't mind making another toolbar button. Which do the two of you prefer? The question to answer is, "Would I ever want to copy the password to the clipboard for the current website without taking the CoolKey action?" My answer would be no--i.e., I'd go with tanstaafl's idea--but that's just because of the way *I* use PasswordMaker. Others may use it differently...

Thoughts?

IE Tab makes Firefox use IE to render pages. Seems to be broken on my computer though.

I think that tanstaafl has the best idea here. No need to waste toolbar real-estate if the option can be added to CoolKey.

Sounds good. Tanstaafl, can you add to the FRL?
