Description

This snippet allows two ranges of colors to be assigned randomly. This is useful for reducing the number of controls that the user has to deal with and provides an easy way for narrow ranges of colors to be assigned without user intervention. This can be especially valuable for filters designed to use the variations controls for generating random configurations. To see this filter, work click on the variations button or move the next variant slider.
It may not be immediately obvious why this filter could be valuable but next time you find yourself in a position to assign colors in two narrow ranges and have a filter that depends on variations then keep this snippet in mind.

Note: This snipped does not use any controls but it was necessary to add a control in order for it to be submitted – it can be ignored.
