Repeating brushstrokes

You can save a brushstroke and then reapply it to the same image or other images. You can also repeat a brushstroke along the border of a path or mask. For information about applying a brushstroke to a path, see Applying brushstrokes to paths.

You can edit a saved brushstroke to create new effects by adjusting attributes such as the size, number, angle, and color of the brushstroke.
