Add "generate password" in the browser context menu (mouse right click on password box)
Simple login adds "create alias" into context menu, but we don't have "generate password" in the context menu yet from Proton Pass

I'd like to add one more vote for this feature. The user should be able to generate a new password with one click from the extension icon. This would add greatly to the usability of Proton Pass.

I also use different password generator tools because, as a web dev, I need this feature pretty often. It would be very useful if you could add this option to the additional menu in the Proton Pass browser extension.

Add dedicated button or menu option to the browser addon/extension to open the password generator. It is a handy feature to change an existing/current password on the fly. ProtonPass should prompt user to save the changed (last version) password. Many other passwod managers have this option (1Password, Bitwarden).

We should have the ability to "generate password" any time that the ProtonPass icon is displayed in a text field.
1Password has this feature.
A lot of services have a signup form that ProtonPass does not recognize. For example, a two step sign-in when you're first asked for an email and then on a new screen asked for the password.
In those situations it is difficult to generate a password. I ended up opening a new tab to find a uuid4 generator and then copy/paste that in.
I would expect to be able to press the ProtonPass button and choose "generate password" from the menu.
