Multiple specific Colour and stroke on text
Good day to you all,
I recently saw this tutorial.
https://creativecow.net/forums/thread/random-change-to-specific-color/
I’d like to fully understand how to use Dan’s expression and link the colour values to a colour picker (like a fill filter). I’m not sure how and which part of the expression to highlight and pickwhip to the colour value to control.
Also
Can this be done for more than 4 colours?
Can this be applied to the stroke colour?
I’m looking to make fully controllable text that has a 10 colour palette so i can either randomly or specifically chose colours for fill and stroke line
stay safe out there

You could use color controls (or fill effects) and modify the first part of the expression to define the color array (with as many colors as you want) this way:
c1 = effect("Color Control")("Color");
c2 = effect("Color Control 2")("Color");
c3 = effect("Color Control 3")("Color");
c4 = effect("Color Control 4")("Color");
c5 = effect("Color Control 5")("Color");
colors = [c1,c2,c3,c4,c5];

No, you can put them anywhere, you just have to link to them with the c1, c2, etc. variables.
