I've drawn quite a lot of shapes within Photoshop (Over 100) and want to change the colour of the shapes from black to another colour.

How can I do this? I don't see an option for it and can't seem to change it at all.

each shape is probably it's own layer. double-click the layer in the white space to the right of the layer icons (or right-click and pick "blending options")

in the resultant dialog, select "color overlay" from the left-hand pane, and then double click the red color swatch to change the color.

Wouldn't necessarily work if I have 200 layers or so, and I cannot find a way to bulk-edit layers. – JFW Jan 1 '11 at 15:59
Merge the layers. – horatio Jan 4 '11 at 15:59

You could use a hue/saturation layer

  1. You can change "colour overlay" in "blending options" of a shape, than "copy layer style" of the shape, select shapes you need to change and "paste layer style"

  2. Select shapes and make a "smart object". Now you can work with it like you work with a simple layer. You can edit smart object by choosing "edit content" menu
