Apply filter via code

[Ghoul Fool]

I'm I correct in thinking that only a few filters are availabe directly in code?

var b = 100;
// Spherize
activeDocument.activeLayer.applySpherize(b, SpherizeMode.NORMAL);

Spherize is fine, but using pixelate mosaic one is force to use script listner code:

var mosaicAmt = 8;
apply_mosaic(mosaicAmt);

function apply_mosaic(val)
{
   var idMsc = charIDToTypeID( "Msc " );
   var desc5842 = new ActionDescriptor();
   var idClSz = charIDToTypeID( "ClSz" );
   var idPxl = charIDToTypeID( "#Pxl" );
   desc5842.putUnitDouble( idClSz, idPxl, val );
   executeAction( idMsc, desc5842, DialogModes.NO );
}

Or am I missing a trick somewhere?

Indeed, not every function is available via DOM-code.
