Drawing a line with Bezierpath using CAShapeLayer object

I am making an image editor which can create different shapes objects like circle, triangle and square which can also be updated or removed. So I have used CAShapeLayer for creating shapes objects.

Now I also want to draw a line on image which can also be updated or removed so I have used bezierpath and CAShapeLayer to create the line, it is working fine. BUT now the problem is that when I want to select any existing line it can be selected any where close to line tool because CAShapeLayer also set the fill region which will be a straight line from start point to end point.

My question is that how can I create line with no fill region using CAShapeLayer.

Here is my code for creating line:

CAShapeLayer *line = [CAShapeLayer layer];
// Using bezierpath to make line 
UIBezierPath *linePath=[UIBezierPath bezierPath];

// Creating L with line

[linePath moveToPoint:point1];
[linePath addToPoint:point2];
[linePath addToPoint:point3];
line.path=linePath.CGPath;


// Configure the appearence of the line
line.fillColor = Nil;
line.opacity = 1.0;
line.strokeColor = [UIColor whiteColor].CGColor;

Any idea on this will be really appreciated.

Can you try this. Its work for me

    CAShapeLayer *line = [CAShapeLayer layer];
    UIBezierPath *linePath=[UIBezierPath bezierPath];
    [linePath moveToPoint:CGPointMake(startx, starty)];
    [linePath addLineToPoint:CGPointMake(endx, endy)];
    line.lineWidth = 10.0;
    line.path=linePath.CGPath;
    line.fillColor = shapecolor.CGColor;
    line.strokeColor = shapecolor.CGColor;
    [[self.view layer] addSublayer:line];
