Individually, you can edit them by double-clicking on the beam and adjusting the handles/stems length as desired.

If all notes have beams, you can do: right-click on a beam -> select -> all similar elements -> In Inspector: tick "User Position" and change the value of the 2 Position boxes.
But eg for quarter notes or single eighth notes (so, no beam), you must edit individually the stems. Or, better/complementary way: go in menu "Style"-> General -> Notes -> Shorten stems: change the value of shortest stem (and progression)
For the record, what's the reason to want to shorten stems?

I just want to focus more on the fret number rather than on the stem.
Thanks for the tips!

"to focus more on the fret number"
Increasing the size of the fret number (in Staff Properties -> Advanced style properties) may be another way to achieve this?
