Using preset shapes (Photoshop)
When you're using the custom shape tool, you can choose from a variety of preset shapes. You can also save shapes that you create as preset shapes.
To select a preset shape: - Select the custom shape tool .
- Select a shape from the Shape pop-up palette. (See Using pop-up palettes.)
To save a shape or path as a custom shape: - In the Paths palette, select a path--either a vector mask for a shape layer, a work path, or a saved path.
- Choose Edit > Define Custom Shape, and enter a name for the new custom shape in the Shape Name dialog box. The new shape appears in the Shape pop-up palette.
- To save the new custom shape as part of a new library, select Save Shapes from the pop-up palette menu.
You can also use the Preset Manager to manage libraries of custom shapes. For more information, see Managing libraries with the Preset Manager (Photoshop).
