Where to find a list with all the id

Photoshop
1

I’m looking for a list with all the ids
I find this method much simpler unlike others that generate a lot of code,

I would like to understand if the ids are reliable and if they are unique on both Mac and PC

What kind of ID do you mean?

I’m interested in all the ids, so if I need a certain option I do it first,
with alchemist I have what I need, but it takes time,
that’s why I need a list
my question;
there is a list of all photoshop ids

But what IDs are you looking for? Document IDs? Layer IDs? Menu IDs? Some other IDs? Depending on what IDs you want, they could be retrieved different ways

Maybe I’m writing it wrong
I mean all ids
Document IDs? Level ID? Menu ID? Any other IDs?

So short answer would be - there’s no such list with all IDs :man_shrugging:

Karmalaka
I assumed it didn’t exist

okay it means I will use alchemist for this purpose

Thanks for your help

There are like at least 6000-7000 of stringIDs. And if you want to make actionDescriptor with your custom stringID… you can make as many new stringIDs as you like to and those will get typeID assigned automatially. For 3rd party C++ plugins you can define your own IDs a well… most likely charID. …you really need to think of what is use case for that ID. Because if you add 3rd party plugin it can add new IDs.

I agree with you

jarda I didn’t know there were so many
I was thinking of 100 id

I made this list for executable actions only: alchemist/src/inspector/classes/StringIDs.ts at master · jardicc/alchemist · GitHub

But something might not work… and with new PS feature there might be new IDs missing.

And this is table stringID ↔ charID alchemist/src/atnDecoder/classes/CharIDToStringID.ts at master · jardicc/alchemist · GitHub

These might be as property within ActionDescriptor for some action with different ID but it is not often executable on its own.

Not all stringIDs has charID… so few thousands are missing.

Wow Jarda thanks Now I’ll take a good look at it and see what I can do.
