The Star Tool has several options on the shape and on the context toolbar to enable the number of points, the inner radius (length of points) and the curvature of the left and right sides of the points to be controlled.
The following settings can be adjusted using a vertical tool slider:
Width—controls the width of the line using a vertical slider next to the tool's location. Slide up or down to set the width.The following settings can be adjusted from the context toolbar:
Keep selected—when enabled (default), the new shape layer will be selected on creation. When disabled, the new object is deselected which prevents it from adopting the next object’s stroke/fill properties.
Curve Edges—when enabled, the sides of the star's points can be curved using red handles on the shape.
Convert to Curves—converts the selected object into a series of connected lines and nodes.
