Indesign: how to set the default fill color?

[Christian_Häusler@adobeforums.com]

Hi,

I`m searching for a way to set the default fill color in InDesign CS2 with an AppleScript.
In Photoshop and Illustrator this is an easy task.

I tried this:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
set aColor to make color with properties {color value:{0, 0, 0, 100}, name:"newCol"}
set fill color to aColor
end tell

I got a new swatch but he stops saying: "fill color can not be set to "color id 364""

Any ideas?

There isn't a direct equivalent in InDesign. What you need to do is to make
your color, and then make that the fill color of all the object styles.
