Change the color of the fill (without affecting the stroke color)

Hello, everyone. I got the code on Community and modified it. The code changes the fillColor, but it also fills the stroke with color (even though the stroke doesn't need it). I searched for the code on Community, but still don't know how to fix.

1. only change those real fillcolor, ignoring the state of the stroke.
2, Is it possible to change the code so that it can also change the of strokecolor and ignore the state of the fillcolor?
3, The code doesn't seem to work when the target layer is off display

Hi, 

If you just want to change the fill color of alreday filled items then you need to you use the following statement

if (changeFill && pathItem.filled) {

instead of

if (changeFill) {

 

So, updated version of your latest script will be 

//Define Variables
var document = app.activeDocument;
var allLayers = app.activeDocument.layers;
//
var darkGreyRGB = new RGBColor();
darkGreyRGB.red = 50;
darkGreyRGB.green = 50;
darkGreyRGB.blue = 50;

//BASE Function
//~avoid failures due to non-existent lay

Hi,

You can try the following snippet where balck and white are skip based on your document

//Define Variables
var document = app.activeDocument;
var allLayers = app.activeDocument.layers;
//
var darkGreyRGB = new RGBColor();
darkGreyRGB.red = 50;
darkGreyRGB.green = 50;
darkGreyRGB.blue = 50;

//BASE Function
//~avoid failures due to non-existent layer names.
function getLayer(layerName) {
    try {
        return document.layers.getByName(layerName);
    } catch (err) {
        return null;

Here is the full script. It can changes the color of text boxes and path items in layers at the same time (ignoring black and color) 

Thank you Charu Rajput for your help

 

Best regards

nothing happens and no text items and does not contain text items within the group = =

//Define Variables

                        var docText = document.layers.textFrames;
                        for ( var i = 0; i < docText.length; i++ ){
                            if (ture && docText.filled ) {
                                docText.selected = true;
                                //docText.Filled = true;
                                docText.FillColor = color;

                        }
                    }
                }
            }

            fillColor(redColor, fillLayer)
    }

 

i don't know, maybe we can just modify this script to get the text items at the same time

looking for your help

    //Gather any children pathItems and textframes in case their parent is a Group/Compound Path
        function getAllPathItems(parent) {
            var list = [];
            for (var i = 0; i < parent.pageItems.length; i++) {
            var item = parent.pageItems[i];
            if (item.pageItems && item.pageItems.length)
                list = [].concat(list, getAllPathItems(item));
            else if (/path/i.test(item.typename) && !/compound/i.test(item.typename))
            //else if (/path/i.test(item.typename) && /text/i.test(Frames.typename) && !/compound/i.test(item.typename))
                list.push(item);
            }
            return list;
        }
