“List Internal IDs” is a miscellaneous utility script using the JSON Action Manager scripting library.
This stand-alone script written in JavaScript opens a dialog box with a text field containing a JSON object listing all internal IDs used by Photoshop’s programming interface. You can copy or save the generated JSON text.
Warning:
- In Photoshop CS2, the above dialog is omitted, and a standard save file dialog is directly displayed instead, asking where the generated JSON text should be saved.
- In Photoshop CS, the generated JSON text is directly saved to a default file located on the user’s desktop.
- In all Photoshop versions, the script displays first a warning message stating that completing the operation definitely takes some time (between 10 and 20 minutes, or even more).
This script can be used in Adobe Photoshop CS or later. It has been successfully tested in CS and CS4 on Mac OS X, but should be platform agnostic.
