Irregular Hexagon (and other) shapes?

Make a construction out of circular shapes with an additional line from the centre to the edge

You can size, rotate and position these as required (as pixxxel schubser said - you need angles to narrow it down and can enter them into the options bar when you transform rotate)

Then use the pen tool to create a new shape over the centres

Finally switch off visibility of the construction circles

Converting it to a shape should provide some flexibility

Hi JessicaGoodlin​,

like Mike said before …

But one note:

you have to define one angle as minimum. Otherwise you have hundreds of possibilities to create your hexagon. (One angle should restrict this to less than 10 options.)

Hi Jessica,

No, there's no way to create irregular polygon sides in Photoshop using the polygon shape tool. You'll have to construct the shape geometrically the old fashioned way.

Note that if you require very price coordinates, you can create horizontal and vertical guides and then snap to them when drawing.

Horizontal or Vertical

Use "cm" or "mm" instead of "px" to place it in a numeric position.
