Password Generator is limited to 50 characters [1Password in the Browser, not 1Password 8]

1Password 8 is limiting newly generated passwords to 50 characters, but 1Password 7 allowed for up to 100 characters. This seems like a downgrade to me. I hope this will be changed back to 100 cha...

Yes, I was using the 1Password 8 Browser Extension, however it is version 2.0.6. When I go to a new website and create a new user name and password, I use the browser extension to create the password. When I change my password on an existing site, I use the browser extension to create the new changed password. I have never used the website or the app to create passwords.

Thanks to all for clarifying that it is the browser extension (versus the App) that has a slider the stops at 50 characters. Even though you can double click on the "50" to change it to "100", I would request that this feature/bug? be changed to have the slider go directly to 100 characters. Please make this change in future updates.

Thanks again to everyone here for your information and help.
