Hello Jonathan2,

In cases where you are not using 1Password (and not logged into Windows) are you using another type of device or specific application to create and type out that new password, for example in a browser or text editor? If this is the case, your feature request would best directed to the creator of the OS or application you are using.

1Password itself can generate passwords for you. You can set several different preferences for passwords, including the length. Take a look at this guide which details how to Use the password generator to change and strengthen your passwords.

You can also Create a custom password using 1Password in the browser and a similar set of preferences.

I hope these guides are helpful. However, if you would like elaborate further on this feature request and how 1Password can help, just let us know and we can pass your feedback along to the Product team. Thanks!
