How to Use the Line Tool in Rhinely for Custom Rhinestone Shapes

The Line Tool is one of the fastest ways to create custom rhinestone shapes in Rhinely. Instead of starting from a premade library shape, you can click point by point to draw your own outline, finish the shape, and then turn it into rhinestone artwork.

1. Create a design and open the canvas

Start in My Designs, create a new design, and choose the folder where you want to save it. Once the canvas opens, choose a product option so you can begin working.

2. Select the Line Tool

The Line Tool is in the left toolbar. After selecting it, move to the canvas and click once to create the first point. The second click creates the first visible segment. Every additional click adds another connected segment.

3. Build the shape point by point

Think of the Line Tool like placing corners. If you want a simple angled shape, click at each corner. If you want a more rounded result, use more points with smaller changes between them.

4. Right-click to finish the line

When the outline is complete, right-click to finish the line. This tells Rhinely you are done drawing the current path. From there, select the line or shape and apply rhinestone settings.

5. Turn the line into usable rhinestone artwork

Once the line or custom shape is finished, use the rhinestone fill options that best match the design. For an outline style, keep the stones along the edge. For a filled shape, test a smart or grid-style fill and adjust spacing until the stones look balanced.
