Hey!

Does anyone know if it is possible to get a list of all the reference names for the executeCommand(); function?

To be more specific; i'm talking about a list of all possible "number names", like the one highlighted in red 

app.executeCommand(2359);

2359 = Preferences

Awesome David, will you announce it at the forum when it's finished?

Sorry to bring up an old conversation but do we still not have a way to Reset the workspace that was last used?

I have been looking for a way to do this for Aftereffects for a while now and I decided to try and use a menuCommandId to do it but it turns out there is no known ID for it unless I am mistaken.

The Reset workspace command for After Effects is:
app.executeCommand(3566);

I just released the AECC2014_MenuIDs_v1_0.pdf. Lots of stuff in this one. Over 1600 items listed. Contextual menus, dynamic menu sections like recent projects, history, effect plugin categories, recent animation presets, etc...

Both AE CC and AE CC 2014 are located at the same link original link.

    By doing some research I found this list, but i haven't checked if all the codes work in newer versions of AE.

    However i still think it a good idea to create a forum document so everybody can share the command codes.

    Code list:

    It might be worth creating a new Document for this. Never tried so i don't know how it works...

    Something that anyone in the After Effects Scripting community can edit/ add new entry: english name / commandID / more info about how to use

    Some are kind of obvious, some not at all.

    Thanks for all the replies, I appreciate it

    UQg: it sounds like a good idea.

    If no one has already started to create a document for this, and if I got time for it I might do some research and create one.
