Thank you for posting the screenshot. Are you trying to edit the number of characters or some other attribute? The Smart Password option doesn't have any editable options since it uses 1Password's brain to generate a secure password that matches a website's requirements. There's no need to edit anything here.
If you'd like to set your own password rules then you can click on Smart Password and select Random Password instead:
When Random Password is selected you can edit things like the number of characters and whether the password uses symbols. Then you can turn on Use as default for suggestions.
