MacOs Mojave Preview lacking the 'Draw' feature

I have macOS Mojave (10.14.5) on a MacBook Pro (Mid 2012) and I don't seem to have the underlined (in black) option in Preview. I'm up to date with the software updates and I'm wondering why I do not have the draw option in my Preview app.

Just tried that, and it doesn't work.

I just read this in the tool description in the link you provided:


"This tool appears only on computers with a Force Touch trackpad."


Thanks for your response anyway.

It should work:

Annotate an image in Preview on Mac - Apple Support

Note: This tool appears only on computers with a Force Touch trackpad.

If clicking on Draw then clicking on your Preview image does not draw, it may be wonky preferences.

Quit Preview.

From your Finder "Go" menu > "Go to folder" then copy & paste this file path:

~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Preview.plist

Click Go.

Delete the plist file.

Launch Preview.
