[PeteBaumgartner]

In Photoshop CC2015+  jsx script I want to turn off the General Preference - 'Show start workspace when no documents open' - but have not been able to find the property name.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Try )

set_app_prefs("generalPrefs", "welcomeScreen2", false);
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
function set_app_prefs(pref_key, prop_key, value)
    {
    try
        {
        if (typeof(pref_key) == "string") pref_key = stringIDToTypeID(pref_key);
        if (typeof(prop_key) == "string") prop_key = stringIDToTypeID(prop_key);
        var d1  = new ActionDescriptor();
        var d2 = new ActionDescriptor();
        var r = new ActionReference();
        r.putProperty( charIDToTypeID( "Prpr" ), pref_key );
        r.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID( "capp" ), charIDToTypeID( "Ordn" ), charIDToTypeID( "Trgt" ) );
        d1.putReference( charIDToTypeID( "null" ), r );
        d2.putBoolean( prop_key, value );
        d1.putObject( charIDToTypeID( "T   " ), pref_key, d2 );
        executeAction( charIDToTypeID( "setd" ), d1, DialogModes.NO );
        }
    catch (e) { alert(e); }
    }
