Hi,
Is it possible to create curvy dotted lines, with the dots spaced evenly in Photoshop?
I tried using scatter and shape dynamic but the result isnt what I want.
Thanks.
 
...have an experiment with the brushes palette, there are spacing options and all sorts of other controls to stroke a path with a custom brush all of your own desire...

...the spacing option is under dual brush...

...once set stroke a path with your new brush preset...

...a very smart feature too...

...enjoy and all the best!

To create a brush and set painting options
Open the Brushes palette by clicking the brushes palette button in the options bar. Make sure the Brush tool is selected to see the button.
In the Brushes palette, choose an existing brush preset to modify or select a brush shape from the Brush Tip Shape panel of the Brushes palette.

You can also create a new brush tip from an image. With a selection made go to edit > define brush preset.

Select Brush Tip Shape on the left side of the Brushes palette and set options.

To lock brush tip shape attributes, click the unlock icon . To unlock the tip, click the lock icon .

To save the brush for use later, choose New Brush Preset from the Brushes palette menu.
