Rectangle tool is only outline - no option to fill

[miscelllania]

I am in the midst of learning AE, and during a tutorial I am to create a shape and turn off Bezier Path.

The video I am watching has an option for Fill and Stroke, my window does not.

How do I show the options for the rectangle tool? Screenshot of my window is 1. What I'm looking for is 2.

1.

2.

You have a layer selected when you chose the tool. You're in mask mode. Deselect all layers and you'll get the shape tool.

When the layer is selected it will draw a mask,

Deselect the layer in the timeline to Draw a shape layer with fill and strok
