Could you post a shot of the Shapes panel with the Search field empty?

THANK YOU!! It perfectly worked.

It is still unclear from this response how the arrows can be applied to the image???

Also note that you can drag Shapes up to the very top of the list (above all the groups), similar to how it was before. This is useful if you have several "favorite" shapes, and want to have quick access to them.

It didn't work, jsut hung up.  But I used a workaround: I had arrows from an old Photoshop file and copied a layer.

Not gone, just hidden, because nothing says, 'helping you be creative and productive' like hiding tools and features on you. Need to turn around a quick graphic with arrows? Nope, Adobe thinks it is best to waste designer's time searching their forum to discover were tools and features were moved to.

Anyway, helpful tip: the 'Legacy Shapes and More' are not found in the shape tool's horizontal drop down menu. You must open the shapes pallette by going to Window > Shapes.

Indeed, I suggest to create a thread on https://feedback.photoshop.com to request that menu entry in the local menu of the Option Bar.

I dont have arrows under my 2019 legacy shapes. 

[Ussnorway]

just to be clear, there are two panels but only one of them works... the other one was stuffed in untested

[Panamamima]

I have the same problem, switched laptops and lost all the arrows and classic shapes, i dont need boats and trees and have no option to restore default shapes

Hi @Panamamima 

Did you try the answer that is marked "correct" in this thread? Go to the Window menu > open the Shapes panel > and from the panel menu choose "Legacy Shapes and More". If you don't see it, post a screen shot of what you do see.

I dont have the option for legacy shapes

[jane-e]

Hi @Panamamima 

You are looking in the options bar. Go to the Window menu and open the Shapes panel, then look in the panel menu.

[Panamamima]

You're welcome, @Panamamima
