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.

I ran out of space in Reply. Within the Line tool you get to set Preferences as to width, weight, Pixel or Vector...

That link has a pretty thorough discussion which should answer your questions. A lot of things were consolidated under Shapes in the menu, including Line.

Thanks, that's nice. But I just want to make a red line with a thickness of 3px and and a white outline of 2px. I needed two seconds before! And moreover I have macros that I use and that we exchange with my colleagues. I need the thickness adjustment like in version 21. I pay monthly, not to lose basic functions.

Hello everyone, I'm sick of Adobe. Version 22.1 has just been released and no change. No management of the thickness of a line. Why pay so much, when we are removed from functions !!!! Really really very disappointed!

Actually used BOMGAR to access my laptop and mess in PS. Couldn't figure it out.

It was actually a live person, they were helpful in the past. But this time he was stumped.

Great!!! I guess that they lumped the Stroke concept into Shapes
