Change Layer Solid Color?

[rooseveltrp]

Hi,

Might be a noob question but how do I change the color of a solid?

I tried this code:

        {
            "type": "data",
            "layerName": "background",
            "property": "Effects.Skin_Color.Color",
            "value": [
                0,
                165,
                190
            ]
        }

But got this error:

Error: nexrender: Can't find a property sequence Skin_Color.Color for key: Skin_Colorwithin layer: background
aerender ERROR: Runtime error in After Effects.

Also, how do I find any undocumented nested properties like Skin_Color, Source Text.font, etc?

The easiest and most complicated solution is to get Extend Script Debugger in a form of older separate app or a newer VS code plugin and attempt to find the needed property via long process of trial and error, especially for something undocumented like this.

If you do succeed in this matter, please let us all know! You would save a lot of poor souls with this one. :)
