Is There a Star Tool in Photoshop?

Last updated on September 23, 2022 @ 8:34 pm

No, there is no Star Tool in Photoshop. However, you can create stars using the Shape Tools. To create a star, first create a new layer. Then select the Polygon Tool from the Shape Tools. In the Options Bar, set the Sides to 5 for a pentagon.

Draw your star on the new layer. To make it a perfect star, hold down the Shift key as you draw. If you want to change the color of your star, simply click on the color swatch in the Options Bar. You can also add a stroke (outline) to your star by clicking on the Stroke icon in the Options Bar.

So, while there is no Star Tool in Photoshop, you can easily create stars using the Shape Tools.

PRO TIP: There is no built-in “Star” tool in Photoshop, but there are several ways to create star shapes using the existing tools. For example, you can use the Pen tool to draw a star shape, or use a custom shape or brush.
