Hi.

This sounds more than newbie ... but how can I draw a 1 pixel thin black hollow rectangle on a white surface using Photoshop?

Thanks

hmm I almost never use the rectangle tool. I would make a rectangular selection, fill it with black, contract the selection by 1 pixel ( Select..Modify..Contract)and fill with white.

this works, but there may be easier ways

Your method works, but there's indeed easier this way. Considering the number of different solutions posted, this issue is far from being trivial.

Thanks for the reply!
