Feature request: random pattern creation #4

It would be great if there was a way to create random patterns, as currently making patterns by hand is a little tedious, and very interesting effects could be achieved by quickly cycling through random patterns.

Ideally, such pattern randomization could be triggered inside the plugin itself and also using a control the plugin exposes to its host.

Something else to maybe consider (and perhaps these should be separate feature requests) is to allow the user lots of control over the type of randomization and the randomization range.

For example, the randomization type could include patterns made using all of the point types available, or any subset of point types.

Setting a randomization range would limit the randomization to a vertical or horizontal (or both) subset of the grid.

Of course, it would be great if all the controls that let one do this were present both inside the plugin and exposed in its host.

I like this suggestion, currently working on bug fixes and platform support but something to consider for the future.
