P: Bug using Line Tool with 1 pixel line (incomplete path)

In Photoshop CC, when I use the line tool to create a 1px line, it creates a vector path that looks complete but actually isn't. One of the corners is unconnected and it is an incomplete path.

This is a pain in the butt because with the new direct selection of anchor points, there is a lot of clicking of individual anchor points. When the one isnt connected, it requires a second action to get that line to move or look correct.

I figured that this was not desired functionality as It does not happen when using the rectangle tool.

I am not sure if this has been reported here or what, (I assume so) but I figured I would post it up here because it is annoying me very much 🙂 Fix plz?!

Thanks,
-Andrew

    This should be fixed in the current Creative Cloud release.

    On shapes I draw with the line tool one corner is always made up of two overlapping, non-connecting control points. This makes them a bit awkward to modify...

    Draw out a line with the line tool and you'll notice that the end of the line where you 1st clicked your mouse down, will have 3 points instead of 2 and the path is incomplete. This has been like this for quite some time now and I'm surprised no-one has picked up on it.

    I can reproduce this in Photoshop 14.1.2. I've asked some of our QE and managers to investigate further.

    Not just 1px either, all lines do it...

    Excellent. I'm happy to contribute, then.

    Any luck replicating this on your end? I have 2 computers / accounts that this is happening on, so I figured it wasn't a setting or isolated incident.

    Hmm, yeah, I don't think I've seen that one reported before.
