Draw the Line
Now, hold down the
Shift key on your
keyboard and move the mouse away from the starting point you
created. You'll see a thin line indicating how the line will
look.
Finish the Line
If you're satisfied with the direction and length of the line, click the left mouse button again to finish the line. The last step is to let go of the Shift key. GIMP displays a straight line now.
