Reply To: Variable colour which changes from page to page?

Thanks David. Happy to be here and I hope to be able to contribute sometime soon.

If you are right about Obi-wan this is what I was kind of guessing and it is (unless I did not get it yet) what the intent is here.

The idea is that every single page has a slightly different color, so page one is 0/0/100/0 CMYK and page 2, 0/10/100/0, page 3 0/20/100/0… page 10 could be 10/100/100/ and some progression like this — those would not be the actual colors but the idea.

This seems to be exactly what Chung_Chiang’s was looking back in 2008 but he was not as lucky as I was.

The closest thing I found to a variable automatically altered by its page number is Jacques Letesson’s post “Modify width of rectangle based on page number in InDesign via Javascript” ( https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1248995 ) but I don’t understand javascript enough to evolve it from modifying size to reapplying different colors.
