: Is it possible expand stroke in Photoshop or make stroke resize along the shape? When I resize a shape in Photoshop cs6, its stroke's width remains the same size as it was in its original

When I resize a shape in Photoshop cs6, its stroke's width remains the same size as it was in its original width. It could be desirable depending on a situation but most of the time it's not. In fact, it beats the purpose of vector: same shape/look at all sizes.

In illustrator you can expand the stroke so this problem doesn't happen.

So is there a way to make stroke's width dependent on the size of shape?

You can increase the image size, the stroke and shape is also increased proportional to the size also we can keep the quality..Hope this can help you

convert the stroke layer to smart object and it will keep its thickness as vector shape

The only other way as of now to simulate the behavior is to convert the shape into smart object.

As you can see here:
In Photoshop, is there a way to incorporate a stroke into the shape object/layer itself?

No. The vector strokes are set and will not scale when dragging a vector shape. There is no way to change this behavior in Photoshop.
