A tougher question for CSP artists
3 weeks ago
Can you think of a way to create an Auto Action that will result in a RANDOMIZED color/hue fill?
I have not managed to find any way to do that without using color jitter, but that's a brush function and can't be recorded...

I would like a single buttonpress to fill all pixels on a layer with a randomized color.
Here's a tool: https://pinetools.com/random-bitmap-generator
Note that it defaults to 10x10 pixel squares. If you want to randomize every pixel, set that to 1.
Generate an image to your canvas size, then copy and paste it into a new layer.
If you want to generate it in CSP for some reason I could look into that but my CSP is version 1, from before they went to a subscription model. :P
For context, this is for the purpose of a clownpass / color ID map.
If you're unfamiliar, imagine having all the pixels in an image that make sense to group (ie: all skin, all metal, all cloth etc) in one stark high contrast color for selection/masking purposes.
I'm no stranger jumping between many programs over the course of a pipeline but doing so for a single action that needs to be done repeatedly would simply be wasteful...as the journal mentioned, part of the desired outcome here was automation, something CSP's auto action could record and replay. So anything that has a higher interaction cost than "1 click" is already too much, really.
Thank you for your suggestion, though!
Sorry for I won't be of any help. Good luck with this.
