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.

Why is my older versions list limited only to these broken versions? Where can I get even older version which I could use to make some real work?

Not to worry folks, Adobe is very aware of this issue and hopefully a fix will make it our way soon.
The best place for making bug reports and feature requests is in these forums, so you're in the right place.

Sorry for the confusion. I was on the phone last week with a technical supervisor (working out other issues I was having), I brought up the line tool in 2020 and he gave me the link and walked me through it. So they read it and take it seriously. Hopefully. 🙂

oh weird, it just sent me to this forum to make a new post.  I didn't realize you were speaking about this forum.  Ok, I thought maybe there was another way for us to tell them we need this back.

@marta knudsen could you provide a link or directions for us to do the same?  I wasn't aware there was an official complaint option.  We need to make sure the people in charge know that we need the line tool back in all its original capabilities.

I had made a formal request/complaint on the adobe site. I was told by Adobe that if enough people complained about the line tool, they would more than likely bring it back .. or the option to use classic line tool.

I am currently using 2019 photoshop.

Thanks a lot! I'll stick to some old version for good. I made a mistake and updated during a big work project.

@drk 

Open your Creative Cloud app > Click Apps in the upper left > select All apps in the list

Select the 3 dots on the far right of the app you want to manage > select Other Versions

It should have the most recent version listed there. Click install.

If you want an even older version, click View More at the bottom of that window.

Good luck!
