So that a letter doesn’t get the same color for two consecutive periods.

@Dan tried yours again – working really well. Many thanks!

Again thanks so much for helping out 🙂

Hi there,

Have the text layer attached. Trying to find an expression that would randomly change the color of the individual characters, among a set of predetermined colors, every number of frames (say 5).</font>

Using an expression from Andy Ford (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TK8eFx8IAYA) to randomly change the color of the whole text but not…
