[Q] Smoothing Toggle Script

[rin70588324]

Hi guys,

I'm not a programmer but I think this is the best section to ask this.

I'm wondering if it's possible to create a small JS script to toggle on/off the new Smoothing option in Photoshop CC 2018.

Thanks for reading!

// try this

toggle_smoothing();

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

function toggle_smoothing()

    {

    try

        {

        var r = new ActionReference();

        r.putProperty( charIDToTypeID( "Prpr" ), stringIDToTypeID( "tool" ) );

        r.putEnumerated( charIDToTypeID("capp"), charIDToTypeID("Ordn"), charIDToTypeID("Trgt") );

        var ret = executeActionGet(r);

        var desc = ret.getObjectValue(stringIDToTypeID("currentToolOptions"));             

        if (desc.hasKey(stringIDToTypeID("smoothing")))

            {

            var smooth = desc.getBoolean(stringIDToTypeID("smoothing"));

            var tool = ret.getEnumerationType(stringIDToTypeID("tool"));

            desc.putBoolean(stringIDToTypeID("smoothing"), !smooth);

            var r = new ActionReference(); 

            r.putClass( tool ); 

            var desc2 = new ActionDescriptor(); 

            desc2.putReference( stringIDToTypeID( "null" ), r ); 

            desc2.putObject( stringIDToTypeID( "to" ), stringIDToTypeID( "null" ), desc ); 

            executeAction( stringIDToTypeID( "set" ), desc2, DialogModes.NO );

            }

        else

            {

            alert("Tool with no smoothing!");

            }

        }

    catch (e) { alert(e)  }

    }

I really appreciate the time you took to write the script.
