a simple, not filled, rectangle

170 views3 repliesLast post: 8/31/2005
Hi all,

this probably sounds a little bit silly, but so far I coundn't find any tool in photoshop to draw a rectangle that is not filled. Can you help me?

Untill now I always drew a filled rectangle and then used the selection tool to select an inner rectangle and deleted that one. But this can't be the way it's ment to be...

Thx, Langi

Hi there,

Make a selection with the rectangular selection tool

the go to "Edit/Stroke" and set the size, position and colour to what you want.

Hope this helps.
