Agree. I work around this by opening an office program such as PP or Visio, create the line I want, then copy to my project in Express.

Totally needed. It takes a lot of time to edit those lines and takes the "express"away.

By random line tool I mean that to draw lines where ever my cursor goes. If you do not know what I mean, I mean in canva.com app there is a tool bar called draw.

Other Adobe applications have a tool that can draw lines. We do know what it means! 😊

Illustrator: Line segment tool
Photoshop: Shape tools > Line tool
InDesign: Line tool

In Photoshop Express, it works a differently, but you can get there. I played with it a while for you, and this is how.

1. Edit

2. Choose Add

3. Choose Shapes

4 . Shapes > Basic Shapes > choose Line

5. With Line selected, choose Add 1 (upper right). You now have a line.

6. Select the line. Drag the right edge to resize or select Adjust from the menu to Rotate, etc.

7. When you select Rotate from the boxes, you will get a slider. Drag it left or right.

Clunky? Awkward? I think so. I've been using Adobe applications for 35 years and this method is a stretch. But if you need a line using AEX, it can be done. I hope this helps.

It appears you can only draw on a blank drawing canvas right now—not on any type of creation.
