Rivets in PSP

[United]

I know this question has been asked a million times already, but here goes again.

Does anyone know of a good setting in PSP7 that will allow for single pixel rivets to be spaced every 4 pixels or so?

I've been experimenting and all I can come up with are 2 pixel dashes.

If anyone has anything, it would be greatly appreciated.

Salute United,

Not sure about PSP bud.  In Photoshop I select a round pencil 1 pixel size and use 300% spacing.  Works out about the same.  Do you have control over % spacing in PSP?

Unfortunately, no.  All I can do is select from a limited amount of preset line styles and make a line.

I don't like psp because of its rivets only good for panel lines

Tried it.  I've got at least 30 different custom lines I've made and none of em are what I'm looking for.

But, I think I've got something close enough.

Thanks for the help yall.

Draw a solid line and then erase gaps in it of the size required.  Tedious but I think it works.

Then save it, paste it,  rotate it, add end to end, or whatever, you then have your rivets.  
Or pen tool 1 pixel in size.
Just make a string of em, 5 or 6, then connect 2 or 3 strings, save em and you can use them as I mentioned.. rotating etc.

Here you go, 1 pixel then 4 blanks, etc...

Put it the psp/styled lines folder.

Excellent!

Thats just what I was looking for.  Thanks a ton!

Only thing is that it still does the dash when made a straight line up.  But, not a problem.

i use psp for my rivits. i find it better than photoshop..you have to make your own template though..its also good to make it in vector graph before converting it to rasta..
