Generate password function

[samsam1414]

Hi Riccardo! I'm interested in helping this project (very new to open source). I've taken a stab at this open issue and I'm curious if it's a good fit for the project.

One small issue though: when I click Generate, a new password is generated and populates in its associated field. But as you can see below, the password shows up as dots:

My thoughts are that this field should be changed from the PasswordField class to the standard TextField class. Maybe this would then allow the end user to copy the generated password and paste it into the website registration form he/she is filling out.

@bighandsam, welcome! :-)
Yes, in my opinion we should go ahead with whatever improvement we think is appropriate. I like your solution.

As @bighandsam suggested for displaying the password generated, I have added an extra checkbox that allows the user to toggle between show/hide password. Also, after reviewing the earlier contributors' work, I have written a much shorter version of password generator that works somewhat similar.
Please go through my code, and suggest any changes. Thank you.

Hi,
Is this issue still open or closed?
