Krita (v2.9.7) and graphics arts newbie. How do you change the "Line Tools" line size (weight/thickness)?

I've right-clicked my drawn line to "pop up" a seemingly useful set of options, e.g. pen, eraser, color, etc. but no size. Help for a newbie would be appreciated. Not finding this intuitive.

Open the "Tool Options" docker (Settings → Dockers → Tool Options).

Then select your line (or other vector object), in the "Tool Options" docker select the middle (line) tab, and use the "Thickness" control.

Notes:

  1. You didn't right-click your drawn line, you right-clicked the canvas (i.e. the mouse position of right-clicking doesn't matter).

  2. Your Krita version is pretty old, consider updating it to the current one (4.4.2 nowadays).

  • I've abandoned Krita but credited you for your answer. It seems sound. I learned to do what I needed with GIMP. Thank you. Commented Feb 15, 2021 at 20:35
