Shape Drawing Tools
Five shape-based drawing tools allow you to draw shapes and either fill them with a color or
clone an area from a source image. All these tools act similarly to the Stroke and Polyline stroke
type in that they are editable at any time and have a default duration spanning the entire global
range of the comp. However, you can edit the duration at any time in the Keyframes Editor.
The Shape Strokes are used to create shapes or clone areas based on shapes.
All of the Copy [Shape Name] stroke types require that you connect the source node you are
cloning from into the Paint node, and set the Fill Type menu to Image.
The Copy Shapes require a Source to be directly
connected to the Paint tool and set to Image.
