P: Photoshop 22.0: Where is Line Weight/Width and Pixels options?

I'm having trouble using the Line Tool in PS 22.0.0. 

 

How do I set the width/weight of the line? In PS 21 there was a "Weight" option along the top bar, but I don't see that anymore. Am I missing it? Or did it move? 

 

This might be a separate issue, but the lines I'm drawing are not showing up. I have a fill color and stroke color selected, but when I make a line, I don't see it. I just see a blue outline of where it is... the same that might happen if I made a "path" instead of a "shape." 

 

I just need to make a line with a width/weight of 20px.

    @mark_dahm  This has been sooooo frustrating for me.  I used to draw lines all the time and now I am continually working on work arounds for a simple line.  

    PLEASE PLEASE bring back the line tool NOW

    @JaneE , I do not understand. How do you do to draw a line on a sheet and with a ruler in two points?

    “we are investigating how to support both two point lines and rectangular lines.”

    Thank you, @mark142840_dahm. The old line never made a lick of sense to me and I’m glad you will be keeping the new one in addition to restoring the old one for those who need to draw lines that are really rectangles.

    @mark142840_dahm  I know this thread is dense and hard to follow.  Can I please make one more request?  At the moment when I use the line tool, it changes the mode of ALL tools in that area to vector.  Not just the line tool, but when I switch to the square tool after that, it's ALSO switched out of pixel mode. 

    Can you please have the folks who are fixing this, make sure that we can put all of those tools under that tab into pixel mode? 

    Thank you.

    Does anyone know where to find and how to install an older version of PhotoShop (with line tool) on a Mac Os Catalina10.15.4 ? The last version has become virtually useless for me. 
    I now use PhotoShop CS5 12.1. !!! using an old MacBook Air. + large screen. It’s great but an unhandy set up!
