Hi friends. i have many files with more compound path objects. manually it taking more time one by one. Grateful if someone suggest script in ai. commandline is -

with selected object - fill color >> copy fill color behind in appearance >> appearance offset path >>ask for offset path value >> overprint selected fill >> done

same way with selected object - fill color >> copy fill color behind in appearance >> appearance offset path >>ask for offset path value >> select above fill color >> overprint selected fill >> done... thanks in advance guys

i am very new in scripting. till now only working with actions but trying to learn. if separately one or two lines you can suggest like for calling appearance fill or for offset path, will be helpful.

hi mohannegi, as I mentioned, there's no scripting access to appearance fills or strokes. You'll have to find a different approach, perhaps using Graphic Styles?

I've never seen a script that does that particular workflow. You would need to write your own script.
