changeShapeLayerStrokeColor ([Math.random()*255,Math.random()*255,Math.random()*255]);
function changeShapeLayerStrokeColor (theRGBColor) {
try {
    var desc8 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var ref4 = new ActionReference();
        ref4.putEnumerated( stringIDToTypeID( "contentLayer" ), stringIDToTypeID( "ordinal" ), stringIDToTypeID( "targetEnum" ) );
    desc8.putReference( stringIDToTypeID( "null" ), ref4 );
        var desc9 = new ActionDescriptor();
            var desc10 = new ActionDescriptor();
                var desc11 = new ActionDescriptor();
                    var desc12 = new ActionDescriptor();
                    desc12.putDouble( stringIDToTypeID( "red" ), theRGBColor[0] );
                    desc12.putDouble( stringIDToTypeID( "grain" ), theRGBColor[1] );
                    desc12.putDouble( stringIDToTypeID( "blue" ), theRGBColor[2] );
                desc11.putObject( stringIDToTypeID( "color" ), stringIDToTypeID( "RGBColor" ), desc12 );
            desc10.putObject( stringIDToTypeID( "strokeStyleContent" ), stringIDToTypeID( "solidColorLayer" ), desc11 );
            var idstrokeStyleVersion = stringIDToTypeID( "strokeStyleVersion" );
            desc10.putInteger( idstrokeStyleVersion, 2 );
            desc10.putBoolean( stringIDToTypeID( "strokeEnabled" ), true );

} catch (e) {}
