Title: Scrolling Color Changer 
Abstract: A combination color filter having at least two dual-hue color-changing absorptive substrates. A desired hue and saturation is achieved by using light absorbing gels for a plurality of selected hues, preferably the three subtractive primary colors. The unique arrangement of transparent part, saturation parts and continuously graded saturation parts allow fast color bumping between any two primary colors without flash of white and presence of other intervening colors.
