Having a pattern of dots (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stippled

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">having a pattern of dots</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for stippled that I've seen before include "Marked with dots or specks" , "Dotted, speckled" , "Having a mottled effect" , "Having a pattern of dots, on a ceiling perhaps" , "Painted in dabs or dots" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
