Primitives

Create shapes in one click

KBar

Primitives is made to be used with KBar version 2 and up. You can’t create shapes without it.

Creating Shapes

Clicking one of the shape buttons will prompt for the size, fill and stroke settings. The shape will be added to the selected shape layers, otherwise it will create a new shape layer.

Using the Shift or Ctrl shortcuts will create the shape immediately.

Shortcuts

By default Primitives adds a parametric shape. However, you can use and combine:

  • Alt Click to add a Bezier shape
  • Shift Click to fit the shape to the comp’s shortest side
  • Cmd / Ctrl Click to fill the shape to the comp

If you press both Shift Cmd / Ctrl, it will fill the shape to the comp.
