To edit scattering options for a brush:
1
In the Brushes palette, select Scattering on the left side of the palette. Be sure to click
the name, rather than the check box, to select the item.
2
Set one or more of the following options:
Scatter and Control
Specifies how brush marks are distributed in a stroke. When Both
Axis is selected, brush marks are distributed in a radial direction. When Both Axis is
deselected, brush marks are distributed perpendicular to the stroke path.
To specify the maximum percentage of scattering, type a number or use the slider to enter
a value. To specify how you want to control the scattering variance of brush marks, choose
an option from the Control pop-up menu:
•
Off to not control the scattering variance of brush marks.
•
Fade to fade the scattering of brush marks from the maximum scattering to no
scattering in the specified number of steps.
•
Pen Pressure, Pen Tilt, or Stylus Wheel to vary the scattering of brush marks based on
the pen pressure, pen tilt, or position of the pen thumbwheel.
Count
Specifies the number of brush marks applied at each spacing interval. Type a
number, or use the slider to enter a value.
Note:
If you increase the count without increasing the spacing or scattering values,
painting performance may decrease.
Count Jitter and Control
Specifies how the number of brush marks varies for each
spacing interval. For more information, see
“About brush dynamics (Photoshop)” on
page 231
.

number of steps.
•
Pen Pressure, Pen Tilt, or Stylus Wheel to vary the number of brush marks based on the
pen pressure, pen tilt, or position of the pen thumbwheel.
Creating textured brushes (Photoshop)
A textured brush uses a pattern to make strokes look like they are painted on textured
canvas.
Brush strokes without texture and with texture
