    Hi
    i have a project with lots of text layers that i need to change the fonts
    what is the best way to replace them at once and not one by one?

    That’s working for active comp but i have layers in other comps.
    i want to replace them at once and even better if i can control which one to change and which to keep the same

    sure to avoid changing the font just avoid selecting the comps before running the script;

    for the colors instead i can sit down for another afternoon and make the script also ask about the color of all the texts of each selected comp. Sounds good to you?
