Draw lines

It can be useful to draw lines on an image to enhance instruction.

All editing such as cropping and resizing must be completed before lines are drawn on an image.

Formatting of lines such as colour and thickness must be considered before the line is drawn. It's not possible to change the formatting of a line once it is drawn on an image.
