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.

    Hi Jeffrey, thanks for the reply. The gear only lets me choose a thickness of 3px. Is it no longer possible to make thicker lines in Photoshop?

    Click on the gear icon for the line tool options.

    Hi Rosa, thanks for the reply, I don't see any options for making a line thicker/wider in the Properties tab. Please advise.

      Hi Philip,

      You can adjust the properties in the Properties tab for the shape tools.

      Hello, I just updated to PS 2021, I noticed an odd change. The line tool does not create pixel lines anymore. I'm curious as to why such a odd change has been implemented and only for the line tool. It doesn't really make any sense to me. Maybe I am missing something.

      I'm curious as to why such a change was made, and only to the Line tool.

      Thank you.

      Can one day "Line" under "Form tool" actually be a line (with 2 anchor point) not a 1px height rectangle ? it's quite annoying when you can't really draw a line and change line style or easily change line width....
