hi all
I'm in search of a way (or script) that can seperate each object with the same fill color on its own layer.
The aim/scope is so that when I trace an image and limit the amount of colors I would like to have them in seperate layers for later processing in another app. Right now im doing it manually and its ok, but since I have plenty of artworks to do this manner it would help to have some automation/script/easier method of doing it.
thnks in advance
You can find many Compound Patths after Image Trace.
Just check the Document Info Panel on Objects.

hi there, sorry for my delay in replying, got held with work.
I've tried your script and it does seperate them in different layers, but as noted by the other user is eliminates compound paths. In my case I dont think it would be a big deal since I might be restacking the items individually, so i think its still a huge help to have the first big step done automatically. Not sure if ur still interested in knowing my workflow or not by now, if so let me know and I can provide you with some shots (sometimes i take a while to reply depends on my work schedule)
thanks again
