- In the Tools panel, select Rectangle, Ellipse, or Straight line.
- Drag on the canvas to draw the selected shape.
Draw outlines only
Enabling "Draw outlines only" allows you to create hollow rectangles and ellipses with no fill.
Adjust line width
You can adjust the line width of rectangles and ellipses (when "Draw outlines only" is enabled) and straight lines in the Tools panel.
*The "Line width" setting in the Tools panel is separate from the "Brush size" setting in the top-left corner of the toolbar.
Adjust opacity
The Opacity parameter allows you to modify the opacity of the shape.
If "Draw outlines only" is enabled, this affects only the outline. If disabled, this affects the entire shape.
*The Opacity setting in the Tools panel is separate from the Opacity setting in the top-left corner of the toolbar.
Lock aspect ratio
Enabling "Lock aspect ratio" locks the aspect ratio at 1:1, allowing you to resize the shape while keeping it perfectly square or circular.
Draw from the center out
When "Draw from the center out" is disabled, the shape is drawn from the starting point (where you first touch the screen) to the endpoint (where you release).
When enabled, the starting point becomes the center of the shape.
Round corners
Enabling "Round corners" makes the corners of rectangles rounded.
Adjust the rounding level using "Corner radius" in the Tools panel.
*Once drawn, shapes cannot be modified. To edit a shape, use the Transform tool.
