drawing a line without closing a shape

This may be sort of a newbie question,

How do I draw a line, just a line without closing a shape?

I would normally make a shape, uncheck fill and delete unwanted edges but I saw in some templates that some lines were built without resorting to full shapes. How does that work?


Thanks a lot

You can use the freehand tool and just not have it auto close or auto fill, though I'm sure there's other ways as well.

or the add point tool (shortcut A) then create shape (shortcut U)

Ok I got it. It was actually well explained in the manual.

Select points, press U, then space bar


Thanks anyway.
