        There isn't one, but it sure would be nice.

        I'm not even sure if there is a work-around.

        Hi

          Just click the color next to the layer name.

              So it would be something like the following?

              fletch.call_in_middle_of_the_night.get_in_car.come_to_current_location.manually_change_color "Black"

                layer-color=.rb

                  I think that method would need to be profiled...

                      its to bad there isn't something like a macro recorder in SU where you can perform an action, then just check the code it created. 😒

                        Wouldn't help when there's no API for the action. Materials and Layers are sorely missing methods.
