Rectangle tool

Draw rectangles and squares.

The Rectangle tool (R) draws axis-aligned rectangles.

  • Press R, then click and drag from one corner to the opposite corner.
  • Hold Shift while dragging to constrain to a square.
  • Type exact dimensions while drawing to set width and height precisely.
Tip

Rectangles obey your current stroke and fill settings. Adjust them before drawing or change them later in the Properties panel.
