[ tutorial ] dashes

Sketch Pad Tutorials
Lesson # 5 ;  
 

 
 
STEP ONE; create a new TRANSPARENT layer over your image. Now with the use of the anchor tool, start plotting points. 
 
EXAMPLES: At first plotting the points will be difficult. So here's an easy template that you can follow. Use those two wings to curve the line. That is key when anchoring these plots. Adjust to your likings if not statisfied. 
 
STEP THREE : Right click > Edit > and look for the section PATH
STEP FOUR : Now this window will pop up! I got confused with this window as well so I feel ya. See that Line Style below the Line Width? Click it and these options will list up. These are the presets that I use whenever I use the dash effect but, I'll leave the experimenting to y'all/ There are long dashes, medium dashes, short dashes, dots etc. 
 
 
STEP FIVE: Click that button and youre done. 

 

*any confusion or suggested tutorials comment down below. I will try my best to work things out.
