Read Layer's Color Label

[activeDocument]

Hello,

I started writing PScripts this very day coming from a 15+ Years Background in Flash/ActionScript Development and FrontEnd/JS Programming.
After extensive searching both in the Script Reference and other Documentation I was unable to confirm wether or not its possible to at least retrieve a layers color label (Red, Orange, Yellow, None etc) given by the Author in the Layer Panel.

This would be extremely useful.

Thanks for any hints

Hi,
you can try this one:

Code: Select all

var ref = new ActionReference();

   ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID("Lyr "), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt") );

   var desc = executeActionGet(ref);

 alert ( typeIDToStringID(desc.getEnumerationValue( stringIDToTypeID('color')) ));

Have fun
