Although unintuitive, the layer panel menu item for "Collapse all groups" also collapses expanded layer styles/fx... But it will also collapse true layer sets/groups as well.

 

This command can be recorded into an action.

 

One way to script this (for all layers) would be:

 

app.runMenuItem(stringIDToTypeID('collapseAllGroupsEvent'));

really thanks for your reply. my request is not to collapse them all but collapse one fx layer to each layers under that fx layer.

I don't know if this is possible. Good luck.
