I'm on a mac running Catalina (10.15.1)

I seem to have Photoshop CC 20.0.8 release

AND

Photoshop 21.0.2

All I wanted to do was make an arrow, using the custom shape tool.

I was able to do it in 20.0.8

BUT

when I tried to do it in 21.0.2 I only got this weird bunch of folders with flowers and things in them.

No way to make an arrow. So I guess I must stick with CC 2019?

Go down to "Legacy Shapes and More" and open these folders to get to the arrows:

In Photoshop 2020, go to Window > Shapes to open the Shapes Panel. The drop down picker does not have that Panel menu.

Is it an option in the Panel menu? (click on those lines in the upper-right corner) If I click that menu item, the Legacy shapes folder is added to the list.

Then you expand that folder as shown in my first screen shot.

Hi @Straightlife,

Notice that gener7 is using the panel menu in the new Shapes panel found in the Window menu and you are using the options bar. You need to open the Shapes panel and you’ll find it.

Thanks Janee. I forget that what steps are second nature to me are not to others.
