Hello,

 

Please is there a way to disable the popup window asking me for specific size when working with the Rectangle tool? When you are not dragging your rectangle, but only click. I would like it to either do nothing, or create one pixel dot etc, but not the pop-up window you then have to exit. As I am now working with a lot of rectangles on a project, this is giving me a headache... Thank you for reply

The tools are created to provide the dialog box, on click. This function cannot be turned off. However, you can create actions, and those can have keystrokes assigned. You can create multiple actions, to create specific sizes, with different keyboard shortcuts.
Another thing: if you're working with multiple rectangles of the same size, they can be Option/Alt dragged to create duplicates, and if you use Edit>Transform>(choose transformation of your choosing), then use Edit>Transform Again.
