There is a way to Dodge and Burn using the Brush tool with its features.  It has the added benefit of putting the Dodge and Burn on a separate layer where it can be edited repeatedly without corrupting the original image. Here is how to do it. (It takes longer to describe than to do.)

1. Load a file to be retouched and add a blank layer.

2. Choose Edit > Fill and from the double-arrow options of the Use field, choose 50% gray. Then click OK. The image area will become gray overall.

3. Change the Blending mode in the Layers panel from Normal to Overlay. The Background image will return although you will be working on 50% gray layer.

4. Do not use the Dodge and Burn tools. Choose the Brush tool.

5. Painting in white will Dodge (lighten) the area, Black will Burn (darken) the area. Strike the D key to place Black as the Foreground color and White as the Background color. To transpose them strike the X key.  Although the image will reflect the changes, they are being recorded on the 50% gray layer.

Your brushwork my be viewed by turning off the eye in the Background layer. Best of all: to undo any tone adjustment and return the area to its original value at. any time. now and in the future, simply return that area to 50% by cloning from an adjacent unretouched area of the 50% gray layer.

    hi

    yes i use this

    but i would like a brush that let me click once and keep clicking (not click several/many times the mouse) and increse the color

    in short i would love to  have a brush that when i click start to paint with  a very light gray(black) and keeping the mouse pressed it become gradually black

    i guess the best is have brush with these settings the flow set to 10 + airbrush style built up effect

    is there a way to controll to slower or faster the flow feature?  i mean i keep clicking and the brush paints faster or slower the black

    i have done what do you have suggested above

    3. Change the Blending mode in the Layers panel from Normal to Overlay. The Background image will return although you will be working on 50% gray layer.

    4. Do not use the Dodge and Burn tools. Choose the Brush tool.

    5. Painting in white will Dodge (lighten) the area, Black will Burn (darken) the area. Strike the D key to place Black as the Foreground color and White as the Background color. To transpose them strike the X key.  Although the image will reflect the changes, they are being recorded on the 50% gray layer.

    ok my english is really very poor

    my goal is click my mouse for example (i have selected black color ) , keep the mouse button down and let the brush slowly paint the layer with black , but gradually

    i have setup flow 10% + airbrush style built up effect , but can i slow down the flow ?

    where is the setting that let me gradually paint in black ?

    thanks

    ps i like the dogde/burn tools when i work with lumonicity maskes

    I suggest that you look into the features offered by using a Wacom (or similar) tablet and pressure sensitive stylus.
