Hi @rdFerrarezzi, do you mean you want to set the stroke alignment to outside? You can't do that directly via a script. Perhaps it can be done using an action or applying a graphic style?

"do you mean you want to set the stroke alignment to outside?", Yes.

Is it possible to create a graphic style via script, if so, how?

I'm not confident that it is possible to create a graphic style via script. Graphic style libraries seem to be just normal .ai files with the graphic styles in them. So you can't make the style(s) ahead of time? That's tricky then. I suggest you ask a new question here on the forum asking something like "How to create a graphic style in ExtendScript?"

 

Also @Kurt Gold would an action work here to set an objects stroke to align with outside?
