Dynamic lighting and polygon

So the first time i placed dynamic lighting I could just click from one corner to the next holding down shift and it would create a continuos line. Now its more like polygon its no longer a single line but a geometric shape. I dont really wanna right click or esc every time i end a line besides that leaves gaps sometimes. What I am I doing differently?
If you have the "Draw Shape" tool selected, it will draw a rectangle, where as the "Polygon" tool will draw a line with waypoints every time you click the mouse.

To draw a line you have two options: The polygon tool and rightclick after the second point, or the draw shape tool which can be used to make lines (just draw a box that is 0 squares wide).

Just to follow up, when you're getting a triangle, it's likely the fill color. Setting the fill color to transparent (the grey checkerboard) will leave you with just a line.
