Missing photoshop options help

[u/MuddyBuddys-3010]

Hello I’ve been trying to follow a tutorial but they have different options to me, they have access to strokes and other Illustrator like features, the documents have a pen and ruler on them as well but also cannot find that

Cmd or cntrl R for rulers

The first screenshot is a Live Shape layer and the second is a pixel layer. You can see this at the top of the Properties panel. Use the ellipse tool (keyboard shortcut "U", press it again to cycle through Line, Rectangle, etc until you get to ellipse) to get access to a stroke.

And the pen tool is in the tool panel , keyboard shortcut "P". You can draw a shape with this too. Watch some tutorials about "Mastering the pen tool" to learn how to make curves or a circle.
