Join Julieanne Kost for an in-depth discussion in this video Strokes, fills, and effects for shapes, part of Photoshop CC 2018 Essential Training: Design.
- [Instructor] In the next few minutes we're going to…take a look at how we can add strokes and fills…to multiple shape layers and Photoshop.…I'll begin by selecting the custom shape tool…and then I'll choose a custom shape.…I'll select the one that looks like a donut.…And tap Enter to dismiss the shape preset picker.…I'm going to use a solid color for my fill.…And I'm going to modify the stroke by clicking on it…and choosing a solid color.…I'll change the width of the stroke.…I'll make it rather thick so we can see it.…
I'll tap in five and then tap Enter.…And then we can use the downward pointing arrow…in order to select from different types of stroke.…I can change to a dash line or a dotted line depending on…the options that we set up through align caps and corners.…If you want to modify the stroke or create your own,…you can click more options and then change all of these…options as well as the dash and the gap.…When you're finished click Save to save your preset.…
For now I'll click cancel…and I'll return to the solid stroke.…
