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 called adobe - they have to manually re install 2019 for you.

Agreed, the solution is to roll back not push forward with a hack fix. Adobe listen to your customers!!!!

Just restore the pixel option. Nothing complex or fancy. Just draw a simple line between two points. I usually like new functions with updates. Like the sky replacement and neural filters etc but taking functions away I don't like.

Many users are complaining about this totally incomprehensible  change !

Not only are there many times that pixels work better for the line tool but today using it on vector, is not only no longer intuitive, but not even heuristic; it takes ages to figure out the new way to do it, and each time to draw a simple line on a layer takes so much more time.
I have been using photoshop for years and years, and have never complained about updates, even when sometimes it takes time to adjust, but this one is completly innapropirate...

In addition to the 'pixel' option: what's also missing now, is a tool to quickly draw a line PATH of specific width in any direction.

Unless I'm missing something the only 'workarounds' are to use a 'shape' (one shape for every line, which very quickly fills the layers panel) or the rectangle tool (where I can only specify height if I also specify width), then transform.

Which makes the only realistic workaround: Use PS CC 2019 until this is fixed.

Please reinstate the pixel option for the line tool - you've completely screwed up my workflow.

Thanks

Hey Adobe people while you have removed working tools why have you also removed the ability to install working old versions? Are you trying to get rid of customers? Please if you break tools let us still install old proved usable versions.  Here's a screencap from my CC app, oldest version I could get still has the messed up free transform aspect which also ruins my work and muscle memory.
