How to draw arrows with dotted lines and dotted arrows in PS

When I was surfing the Internet, I accidentally saw a netizen asking how to draw an arrow with dotted lines in Photoshop. Previously, I wrote about a person who used a brush to draw dotted lines directly. I never used PS to draw dotted lines at ordinary times. I tried to draw a picture and felt it was OK. Now, I would like to share my practice with you.

Operation method

Let's draw an arrow composed of dotted lines, open Photoshop, create a new file, click OK, and select "Line" in the shape tool in the left toolbar, as shown in the figure

In the top line setting option, set the fill color of the line to no fill color. Do not select any color and click the stroke item. Select a dotted line in the list, such as the second dotted line selected by Xiao Bian here. Use the default setting

Click the gear on the left side of the thickness to open the list, and select the arrow "end point". The arrow drawn in this way is on the right side of the line

Next, we start to draw an arrow with a dotted line in the straight line. First, draw an arrow. Select an arrow in the shape. These styles can be added to the shape box, similar to the operation of a brush

Next, use the line tool to set the fill color and stroke color to black, and draw a short line behind the arrow, which is about the same width as the small tail behind the arrow

Select the small straight line that has just been drawn, copy and paste it, and place it on the left side. Do this for several times in succession, trying to make the distance between each small line as close as possible. Finally, combine these layers to form an arrow layer
