Hi. You'll see the root note is hilighted red and has a 1. I think it's showing you all the degrees of the scale in a box form across all the strings. Confusing for sure but I always tried to remember the pattern and start at the root note only. Then you can apply the patterns from whereve you can find the root note and simply shift the pattern by one fret when hit the b-string.

Someone else will probably explain it better, but I recognised this pain.
