You have a few straightforward ways to draw perfectly straight lines in Concepts:

  • Line Smoothing (Quick & Easy)
    • Set your tool's Line Smoothing to 100% (tap the squiggly line icon on your tool wheel).
    • Every stroke you draw will automatically become a straight line.
    • Pro Tip: Draw one line, then duplicate it (select and tap the duplicate button) for fast, parallel lines.
  • Line Guide (Precise Control)

    • Access the Line Guide by tapping the Precision menu, then the Guide tab (looks like a ruler).
    • Tap the circle next to the Guide tab to activate it. Position the guide with one finger or rotate/resize with two.
    • Draw anywhere near or on the guide, and your stroke will snap to it.
    • Bonus: Double-tap the crosshairs to constrain the line between its handles, or tap+hold the length value to enter an exact measurement.
  • Line Object (Ready-Made)

    • Import a Line Object directly from your Object Library.
    • Drag it onto your canvas, and use the Nudge tool to adjust its length
