I'm trying to draw some dashed lines in Photoshop, and to this end I've been playing around with the brush settings (Spacing etc). I'm using a square brush, and I managed to draw the dashed line as I want it, with one exception: I can't get the brush to be feathered.
Is it a general thing in Photoshop that you can't change (i.e. soften) the hardness of a square brush, as you can with that of a round brush? I doubt that Photoshop would impose such a limitation - there must be something I'm getting wrong.
I'd really appreciate some help on this. Once again, I'd like to have a soft (i.e. feathered) *square* brush, which I can use for various purposes, including the drawing of dashed lines.
Thanks for any help!
Now, you can't adjust the harness value on these brushes, but have a look at them to see if they'll work for you.
Solution # 2: Create your own brushes. It's easy, and you can make them with any amount of "blur/feathering you want.
Solution # 3: Use your hard brushes, then give them a Gaussian Blur afterwards.
Better method all the way round: Do your dashed lines in Illustrator and import them for use in Photoshop.
