How do you configure how 1password generates passwords? I need to limit it to 16 characters. If used to be obvious on how to do this. I don't see this in the help section either. I am a long time user, this needs to be obvious.

    Hi @harczuk!

    Are you trying to do this from the 1Password for Mac app, or from the browser extension? If it's from the browser extension, which version are you using?

    So how do you do this? I want to add symbols to my generated passwords; but, all I get are alpha-numeric. I see how to do it if I login to the web browser/passwords/new password. I'm talking about when 1Password offers to generate a password automatically.

    @Dirtydeedz:

    In your browser extension settings, make sure that the password generator option that you like is marked as default:

    This way, 1Password will use these options also when it automatically generates a password for you in the inline menu below form fields.
