Maya / Python, how to change display layer's colour?

After create a new display layer, how to set colour attribute to that layer?

sel = cmds.ls(selection=True,fl=True)
coneGroup = cmds.group(empty=True,name="cones_#")
dGroup = cmds.createDisplayLayer(coneGroup, n = "cones_cam")
cmds.color(dGroup, (0,0,0))

Use need to use setAttr:

setAttr

sel = cmds.ls(selection=True,fl=True)
coneGroup = cmds.group(empty=True,name="cones_#")
dGroup = cmds.createDisplayLayer(coneGroup, n = "cones_cam")

# Enable the layer's color.
cmds.setAttr(".color".format(dGroup), True)

# Enable the layer's color to use rgb.
cmds.setAttr(".overrideRGBColors".format(dGroup), True)

# Set the layer's color with values between 0-1.
cmds.setAttr(".overrideColorRGB".format(dGroup), 1, 0, 0)


#code

for shadingEngine in cmds.ls(type="shadingEngine"):

new_shader = cmds.listConnections(shadingEngine, type = 'lambert')[0]
print new_shader
new_sg = mC.sets(renderable=True, noSurfaceShader=True, empty=True)
print new_sg
f=mC.setAttr (new_shader+'.color',values[0],values[1],values[2])
mC.hyperShade(assign=new_shader)


Above code work for the color shading through the surface node you can refer and implies it , Happy hunting for your searches

print new_shader
new_sg = mC.sets(renderable=True, noSurfaceShader=True, empty=True)
print new_sg
f=mC.setAttr (new_shader+'.color',values[0],values[1],values[2])
