The final section of the toolbar lets you set the thickness, colors, and fonts used by the tools we previously outlined.
These tools are used before or while editing sketches and shapes. Step 1: The Shape Style tool lets you choose the thickness of lines created by other tools. You can also use it to add a variety of textures and add a drop shadow. Step 2: The Border Color tool, shown below, lets you set an outline color for the current shape or the next shape you create. Step 3: The Fill Color tool, set to the right of the Border Color tool, lets you set a shade for the inside of your current shape or the next one you create. You’ll notice a few features are missing, such as options that allow you to crop and rotate an image. You can find these options by clicking Tools on the menu bar. You’ll also see most of the Markup Toolbar functions listed under Annotate on the Tools drop-down menu. Of course, some people might find Preview’s hidden photo editor to be too complicated, especially if you’re a Windows transplant. You might want something simpler and a bit more familiar. If you truly desire a stripped-down version of Paint, we recommend taking a look at Paintbrush. This simplistic editor shares the same abilities as Paint and performs them in about the same fashion.
