Rectangle line thickness - Peter Linu - 02-29-2024
Hiyall,
Absolute Beginner here.
I want to create a rectangle around a piece of text and make the line a bit thicker.
I found the rectangle tool but can't find how to make it thicker.
Grateful for any advice.

The rectangle tool is not a drawing tool, it just creates a rectangle shape selection. Once you have a selection, you can render it with a line: Edit > Stroke selection. If you use Line mode, you can pick the line thickness and style. If you use the 'Tool' mode, it will use the tool settings (brush size, etc...). In both cases It uses the foreground color.
