I have a custom action that runs perfectly if I comment out the attempt to use the custom function. But if I uncomment it, the code just doesnt run, occasionally giving the error: "generateRandomPastel() isnt defined", even though I have "import '/flutter_flow/custom_functions.dart';" up top.
I'm very new to Flutterflow, so I imagine its a simple answer, but wow am I stumped, any help would be super appreciated!
