Halftone

Edit workspace

The Halftone effect applies a series of dots to the image, rather than a

continuous tone. Halftone images can be printed easily and are

therefore typically used in newspapers and magazines. You can choose

different sizes, colors, and shapes for the Halftone effect. Larger dots

produce darker, more dense areas of the image, whereas smaller dots

produce lighter areas. You can access the Halftone dialog box by

choosing Effects  Artistic Effects  Halftone.

The Halftone dialog box contains the following controls:

• Halftone pattern — lets you choose a line, round, or square

pattern

• Size — lets you choose a size for the pattern cell

• Screen angles — lets you choose the angles for the screen. In the

case of a grayscale image, you can choose only one angle. For an

RGB image, you can choose an angle for each color channel.

• Use as overlay — lets you adjust the strength of the effect and

apply blending

• Blend mode — lets you choose from a wide variety of blending

effects

• Opacity — controls the strength of the effect. As the opacity

increases, the image displays more of the effect and less of its

original appearance.
