Photoshop 22.0: Where is Line Weight/Width and Pixels options?

Why is this thread labeled to have "official solution"?

There is no working solution. Solution would be to test updates before releasing. And stop inventing the wheel again, line tool was just fine as it was.

It's impossible for it to have escaped your notice that your removal of the pixel line tool has been met with pretty much unanimous fury. Yet your community forum still shows this ridiculous change as "Solved". It isn't solved. What you propose is a cumbersome, long-winded and totally non-interactive work-around.

While I can see utility in the new tool, it's not a replacement for the the old one. My car has a retractable roof. On those rare days in the UK when the sun shows its face, I find considerable pleasure in being able to lower it. At no point did the manufacturers decide to do away with the roof because there's an occasional advantage for it not to be there.

The CC community pays a lot of money for what used to be the most complete, professional toolkit. We will continue to do so, and do it happily, if you respond by listening to our wishes rather than impose your own opinions on what facilities you decide to grant to us. You're alienating your customers at a rate that should alarm you, and your users are using your community forum to discuss the best offerings from your competitors.

Your market-leading position is a fragile thing. Wake up to the importance of listening to your customers before it's too late.

I am not a pro but I want to use arrows to annotate.

For me the simplest is to use Powerpoint  This program has objects including arrows yo =can readily format with line types, colors and widths.  I make a few of each type I want .  Copy and paste and edit the new layer as usual.

Kludgey as this is it works and it is fast. 

All in all, losing arrows to get Neural filters that don't work as not an improvement for me.

Please restore the "pixel mode" in the Line Tool.  I can not be the only one who desperately misses it.  I am having to use and older version of the app.  That just doesn't seem fair.

thank you

How can I get old versions of Photoshop? My CC only shows these newish broken versions. Accidentally updated and this newest version is total garbage in many regards. Totally interrupts my working habits. Dear Adobe I hate your random update decisions. Hours of wasted work.

F**king up the line tool made me finally register here. Ruining the free transform defaults was close. General bloating and startup times dont help either. Even with fast m2 ssds and 100000 times the computing power of moonflights newest versions are laggy and a bit unstable. 

In the least fix the line tool and free transform aspect ratio mistakes...

Hey Adobe people while you have removed working tools why have you also removed the ability to install working old versions? Are you trying to get rid of customers? Please if you break tools let us still install old proved usable versions.  Here's a screencap from my CC app, oldest version I could get still has the messed up free transform aspect which also ruins my work and muscle memory.

summary of my feelings: fuck you adobe

Please reinstate the pixel option for the line tool - you've completely screwed up my workflow.

Thanks

Many users are complaining about this totally incomprehensible  change !

Not only are there many times that pixels work better for the line tool but today using it on vector, is not only no longer intuitive, but not even heuristic; it takes ages to figure out the new way to do it, and each time to draw a simple line on a layer takes so much more time.
I have been using photoshop for years and years, and have never complained about updates, even when sometimes it takes time to adjust, but this one is completly innapropirate...

Futur Photoshop :

waiting...

five weeks.  no fix.

how can you people screw up what was perfectly fine?  adobe does this far too often.  so damned tired of trying to figure out why something doesn't work every time an update occurs.

adobe's incompetence has grown more than tiresome.  sick of the numerous screw-ups with every update.  who's the QA manager?  fire them.

For the future versions Adobe: why don't you just default all "use legacy" option checkboxes that are already built in?  Make it this way user would have to enable sudden new behaviours...

Imagine if some Windows update suddenly decided to move cursor left if you moved your mouse to right. This is pretty much how disruptive PS updates feel when you have the software in your muscle memory. Feels like shit.

Yet another voice of someone who has wasted half a day trying to figure out why my lines are now invisible by default.

*Because of course, when we use a line tool, I'm sure I speak for everyone, we expect to see an invisible line between two points. (*sarcasm) hint: we expect to see a line, I know... crazy, right?

I've used Photoshop for over 15 years, and have always encouraged others to use and update for the newest features, even when it's been frustrating when often used features/tools and even software have been removed or changed, (I was a Macromedia Fireworks user, bought out by Adobe and subsequently destroyed... don't get me started.) Even after being forced into CC subscriptions I encouraged Adobe use and touted the positives.

This change seems completely arbitrary and needs to be reversed ASAP!
