  • AE stroke and fill controls

    Hi Guys, This has to have an easy solution but I’ve looked everywhere.
    I’m training myself using AE and I’m stuck.
    I have a layer solid and I’m trying to use the pen tool or elipse tool to make a path or shape.
    However despite what the instructional video shows, when I choose those tools the optiosn for stroke and fill don’t appear in the tool bar.
    All I get is a star and a box (and if the pen tool is chosen the rotobezzier check box).
    Any ideas on how I can get the stroke and fill tools to appear? Thanks

    Hey guys,
    Don’t worry thanks.
    I’ve found it can only be applied to a shape layer.
