In this image, I would like to randomly fill each region with a different color, such that, no two regions have the same color. I've been searching for such a method and have come across a script that will randomly fill in each region with different colors, but in my case I need those colors to be unique.

Is it possible to accomplish this task in Illustrator?

  • Sure, just make a table of unique colors then shuffle the list.

  • I think the "Recolor Artwork" feature might be what you're after: youtube video on it

boguslavsky's plugin in the other answer looks fantastic.

However, there are also free Illustrator scripts available on the web
if you'd rather not purchase anything.

Here's a YouTube video explaining how to install and use scripts, in case you don't know:

One I'll use is called "Vary Hues", you can get from here:
http://js4ai.blogspot.com/2012/08/update-to-vary-hues.html

Merely select art and call the script and you can
choose the number of hues you want, even vary opacity if desired.

I don't know if it fits your needs specifically, but it is a way to randomly alter coloring.

There are more scripts out there for randomizing colors....

I've written a randomizer plugin for Illustrator that should be able to accomplish what you're trying to do. It can randomize colors from a range or from a set. Range randomization is unlikely to leave you with any duplicate colors.
