Unable to replace color on a dashed line

Hey there,

I've made a design where I used the line tool to create pink lines. I also made pink dashed lines. However for another design I have to replace their color to something else. The regular lines worked fine via Layer > Adjustments > Color Replace. However on the dotted lines I can't press this option. Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Do I have to convert the layer to something else before I can change it's color?

Thank you all in advance!

You show all Shape layers. You should be able to change the color of the shape fill and shape stroke using the tool option bar shape color fill and stroke color

That functionality is in my opinion unfit for serious work.

Are the dashed lines possibly the Shape Layers visible in the Layers Panel?

If so you could change the Color in the Options Bar with the Direct Selection Tool selected for example or give them a summary Color Overlay after putting them in a Group.

Photoshop Line shape tool also goes from Point A to Point B, turns and goes back to point A it more a rectangle than a line.
