Hi

I tired a lot and having the headache due to finding the file path for loaded color setting.

First I know, is this possible to get loaded color setting path?

Please suggest me.

Hey natrev​, try this:

var ref = new ActionReference();
ref.putProperty( stringIDToTypeID("property"), stringIDToTypeID("colorSettings") )
ref.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID("capp"), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt") );  
var appDesc = executeActionGet(ref);
var colorSettingsObject = appDesc.getObjectValue( stringIDToTypeID('colorSettings') );
var colorSettingsPath = undefined;
if( colorSettingsObject.hasKey( stringIDToTypeID('using') ) ) { 
     colorSettingsPath = colorSettingsObject.getPath( stringIDToTypeID('using') );
}

If you have a loaded color setting, the variable colorSettingsPath will return the path to the file, otherwise it will return undefined.

Hope it helps!
