Random for text Color

[Dan Ebberts]

This should do it:

random([1,1,1,1])

If you want it to hold the random color rather than change every frame you’d do this:

seedRandom(index,true);
random([1,1,1,1])

Dan Ebberts I have used your code and have not had a result of random colors that I had to integrate the code

” seedRandom(index,true);
random([1,1,1,1]) ” color purple

achievement but not change color random mind as time passes

You can combine this tag with an expression of time?

Hmmmm…. I’d need a better description of how you want the colors to vary with time.

Try to explain better my language is not English: P
and will write me very badly but I will try to do good 😛
Example: let’s say I create a text with a soft color, but I want to change his mind without stopping random color. I work for what could be done? and give thanks for advance;)

I think we may need someone that knows both Spanish and English to jump in here.

I think hes looking for this dan, your random motion script rewritten for it to work on color:

segDur = .5;// duration of each “segment” of random motion
minVal = [0,0,0,1];
maxVal = [1,1,1,1];

seed = Math.floor(time/segDur);
segStart = seed*segDur;
seedRandom(seed,true);
startVal = random(minVal,maxVal);
seedRandom(seed+1,true);
endVal = random(minVal,maxVal);
ease(time,segStart,segStart + segDur, startVal, endVal);

BTW full kudos to Dan for writing the expression, I just changed two lines so it would affect color. Is this what you were looking for?
