The script for obtaining the Bezier curve coordinates of the deformed smart object was not fou

I am writing a script that obtains the Bessel curve coordinate data after obtaining the deformation of the smart object, and I didn’t find the relevant API.

 

const layers = app.activeDocument.layers;

for(var i = 0; i < layers.length; ++i) {

  var layer = layers[i];

  if (layer.kind === LayerKind.SMARTOBJECT) {
    alert(layer.kind);
    // layer, Layer is an smart object, but the smart object data cannot be obtained from Layer
  }
}

    Does this help?

    May I ask how you intend to process/use the information?

    The default is 16 control points, which is normal. If you add control points manually, an error will be reported. customEnvelopeWarp does not exist

    Can you provide the image file for testing?

    I don’t understand what you mean. 

    Please explain with the help of screenshots/sketches.
