Drawing Ellipses and Rectangles

This is one feature that I think would help people out immensely despite it seeming trivial. The ability to create ellipses and rectangles (holding shift make them circles and squares). Adjusting the thickness/color of the line and being able to choose whether the fill is colored or transparent.

There's not much more that I can add upon that but it's a feature that I sorely miss sometimes and is incredibly useful when doing certain animations.

I would love to see this as well. Even being able to make a square/circle brush into just an outline would be a huge help.

Yes to ellipses & rectangles! How about quadratic & cubic bezier curve lines as well?

with the straight tool, you press and hold 'shift' for staright lines. that method could be used for squares, ellipses and other shapes. hold say 's' for squares/rectangles, 'c' for circles etc

but what would then be good after those are implemented would be a 'edit keystrokes' menu. should you could then choose which keys would be suited for which ever shortcut.
namely because not everyone uses QWERTY, so the option of making your own keystrokes shortcuts would be very powerful productively.

I would love to see bezier tool addition too, I know it's easy to say but hard to implement, but I think that will really help us all to make every kind of shape we need in our art.

Thanks guys :)
