Hi Scott, I had this problem before, but with regular patterns. I wrote patterns of different lengths and thought that the segments would pick at random from them. But I noticed that the longest patterns were always selected when there was enough room left for them in the segments. The shorter ones were only selected when the segment was coming up towards the end, and there was not enough room left for the longer ones. So if you want your patterns to be treated as "equal" by the segment, they must all be the same length.
