JSON-Simplified-Formats

JSON Simplified Formats

• Simplified formats used by the functions related to layers (adjustment layers, fill layers, layer styles, layer text), contained in the modules: jamLayers, jamStyles, jamText, part of the JSON Action Manager scripting library:

  • Blending Options Object Simplified Format
  • Document Mode Object Simplified Format
  • Layer Effects Object Simplified Format
  • Layer Object Simplified Format
  • Layer Text Object Simplified Format

• Simplified formats used by the helper functions of the jamHelpers module, part of the JSON Action Manager scripting library:

  • Blend Range List Simplified Format
  • Color Object Simplified Format
  • Curve Point List Simplified Format
  • Curves Adjustment List Simplified Format
  • Custom Shape Object Simplified Format
  • Ellipse Object Simplified Format
  • Gradient Object Simplified Format
  • Hue/Saturation Adjustment List Simplified Format
  • Integer List Simplified Format
  • Offset Object Simplified Format
  • Path Component List Simplified Format
  • Point List Simplified Format
  • Point Object Simplified Format
  • Rational Point List Simplified Format
  • Rectangle Object Simplified Format

Notes:

• Since the total number of parameters can be pretty high, the simplified formats used by the functions related to layers are always defined as JSON objects.

• For the sake of simplicity, consistency and compactness, the simplified formats used by the helper functions are defined as JSON arrays (minimal format). However, the most important simplified formats are now also available in explicit format, making use of more human-readable JSON objects. Besides, this new explicit format is consistent with all the simplified formats used by the functions related to layers.
