I'm changing the visibilty of username and password with CTRL+J and CTRL+H.
I set up an entry with the varible {USERNAME} and {PASSWORD} in the url field.
Variable {USERNAME} is still visible in the footer area after using CTRL+J.
But the {PASSWORD} will be hidden with * in the footer area.

    The hiding using asterisks within references is only supported for the password field, not all entry strings.

    Best regards,

    Hey,
    I think that doesn't make sense to hidden the username in the footer area at the username-field but not in the same area at the URL field, as you can see in my new screenshot.

    Hiding the user name is only a courtesy, not a security function.

    cheers, Paul
