Photoshop CS6: Line tool prints arrow instead of line

adobe-photoshopphotoshop-cs6

I'm trying to draw a basic line, but instead it draws an arrow shape.

I select the Line Tool from the toolbar. I set up its fill and stroke colors and thickness. I simply try to draw a line with it. But it prints an arrow instead of a line.

I switch to Custom Shape Tool and select an object (e.g.; a rabbit). When I return back to the Line Tool, it still draws an arrow. So I guess it is independent with the shape selected in the Custom Shape Tool.

I don't see a Geometry Option in the toolbar, so this answer doesn't help me in Photoshop CS6.

How do I make the line tool draw lines?

EDIT: I don't see this horizontal toolbar:

This thing has been giving me a headache too! I finally found the answer myself.

Do you see the arrow drop-down menu next to the Custom Shape tool? There is a check box for Start and End. Uncheck them both, and it will draw a line instead of an arrow!
