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.

The 22.3 update posted on March 10 contains the pixel mode for the line tool; I will personally go to the mat defending this tool and it's functionality if anybody at Adobe attempts to change this feature again. I'm a believer.

Greetings,

Good news, the Pixels mode is now back. For more details on adjusting line weight see Create lines and arrows using the Line tool

To update Photoshop to 22.3, click "Update" in the Creative Cloud desktop app next to Photoshop. See: More detailed instructions for updating

Let us know your feedback!

Thanks,

Akash

SOOOOOOOOOOO close! But I still can't size my arrowheads as a proportion of the line weight. I need the percentage/proportional sizing. The pixel sizing should have been reinstated when the original line tool was reinstated.

This is specifically for @mark142840 dahm

I think it's only fair Mark, to give us an official response now - what is happening? You assured us, the function would be returned. Most of us suspect this is simply not true and that we are being deceived. What is the truth? I understand, it's pointless shooting you but you have to understand this is a very big issue for paying customers.
