'Live Shape Properties' not showing when drawing a Line

Hey!

I just recognized that I don't get the 'Live Shape Propberties' Panel when drawing a line. The mode is set to "Shape" but I only get the mask properties. When I draw a circle or rectangle it works fine.

Any solutions?
Thank you!

Hi

The live shape properties aren't available when you use the Line Tool

Hi

No bug, that is just the way it works - live shape is only for the Rectangle, Rounded rectangle and Ellipse shapes.

The Polygon, Line and Custom shapes just work as regular shapes

I can't seems to find the live shape tool here on my Photoshop cs6 when using rectangle and curved angle rectangle. What should I do.

Need this solved ASAP.

Thank you for the answers. Strange. Would be better if all the vector based tools would have the same properties. But I'm glad to know it now

Could you please post screenshots with the pertinent Panels (Layers, Channels, Options Bar, …) visible?
