My tut didn't tell you to select "paths". I use "shape layers".

Anyway, the "paths" and "Shape layers" buttons are grouped on the left (which you already know). The "Exclude overlapping shape areas" and "create new shape layers" buttons are located on the far right (in your pic you posted, these buttons would be located to the right of the "Radius" menu - all on the same tool bar.

I'll get a printscreen up later if it is still needed. Don't have time right now.

As for snap - you can try holding <shift> down while drawing your shape out with your mouse. The proportions should be maintained (if I understand you correctly on this point).
