How to Random Shuffle a Spread?

vvvv beta general
1

I have a spread, and I want to scramble the content at random, changing the slice sequal so to speak.

But I am idea-less on how to do it, I patched something to shuffle 1 value, I could redo it 10 times, but that is not elegant, and what if I end up with a spread off 100 slices?

Anyway, hope someone has thought off this before and could come up with a solution.

Thnx already.

sure!.. no text …

heres a version with just a “random (value)” node and without the “random spread”. the trick here is to spread the enable pin of random with a select node.

kudos, elemeier!

But for what reason you didn’t make it a module???

I hope i see that soon on your userpage!!!

I wanna download and place it in /modules/elektromeier right now!

nono thats tonfilms one… the main idea here is to use sorts former index output to have each slice exactly one time but shuffled…

but i like the Select idea, before i used Stallone to spread a single value… i have no problem with a new ele module.
