When you want to create a halftone dot in Photoshop, there are a few things that you need to do. First, you need to create a new layer.

Then, you need to select the brush tool. Once you have the brush tool selected, you need to choose a black paintbrush. After you have chosen the black paintbrush, you need to click on the “Create new brush” icon.

Once you have clicked on the “Create new brush” icon, a new window will pop up. In this new window, you will need to name your brush.

After you have named your brush, you will need to select the “Brush Tip Shape” tab. In the “Brush Tip Shape” tab, you will need to make sure that the “Spacing” is set to “1”. Once you have made sure that the spacing is set to “1”, you will need to click on the “OK” button.

After you have clicked on the “OK” button, you will need to go back to your image. Once you are back in your image, you will need to make sure that your foreground color is set to black and your background color is set to white.

Once you have made sure that your colors are set correctly, you will need to select the area that you want to turn into a halftone dot. After you have selected the area that you want to turn into a halftone dot, you will need to press the Alt key and click on the area.

Once you have pressed the Alt key and clicked on the area, a white dot will appear. If there is no white dot appearing, then you will need to go back and make sure that your foreground color is set to black and your background color is set to white. If everything is set correctly and a white dot is still not appearing, then try restarting Photoshop.

PRO TIP: How Do You Make a Halftone Dot in Photoshop?

Making a halftone dot in Photoshop is a fairly simple process, but there are a few things you need to be aware of before you start. First, you need to have an image that is high resolution (at least 300 dpi). If your image is too low resolution, the dots will look blocky and pixelated. Second, you need to make sure your image is in grayscale mode. If it’s not, go to Image > Mode > Grayscale.

Once your image is ready, go to Image > Adjustments > Threshold. This will bring up the Threshold dialog box. Drag the slider to the right until you start to see dots appear in your image. The number of dots will depend on how far you drag the slider. Once you’re happy with the number of dots, click “OK” to close the dialog box.

And that’s it! You’ve successfully made a halftone dot in Photoshop.
